Ingredients
FOR THE SALAD
- 3 trips Bacon cooked and crumbled
- 1 (5 ounce) spinach fresh baby leaves, container
- ½ cup feta cheese crumbled
- ½ red onion thinly sliced, small
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- ¼ cup pecans use store-bought candied pecans for a shortcut or homemade candied pecans, candied, chopped
FOR THE ORANGE VINAIGRETTE
- ⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons orange zest from about 1 medium orange, grated
- ⅓ cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons shallot minced
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt or more to taste
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper or more to taste
Instructions
Prepare the Dressing
- Place all of the vinaigrette ingredients in a mason jar. Seal the lid and shake until completely combined. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if desired. Use immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 week.
Assemble the Salad
- Place all of the salad ingredients in a large bowl or on a large serving platter.
- Drizzle with dressing, to taste, just before serving.
Notes
- Make it a meal! Add rotisserie chicken or leftover turkey to the salad and serve it as a light entree. It's delicious paired with cornbread muffins or warm bread.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days. The spinach will get soggy if it sits in the dressing for too long, so wait to add the dressing until you're ready to serve.
