Classic Spinach Salad with Bacon (Page 2 ) | March 23, 2025

Instructions:

1. Cook the Bacon: In a skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy (about 5-7 minutes). Once done, remove from the pan and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain the excess fat. Crumble the bacon into bite-sized pieces. 🥓🍽️
2. Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey (if using), salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. 🍯🥄
3. Assemble the Salad: In a large bowl, add the fresh spinach leaves, crumbled bacon, sliced red onion, chopped hard-boiled eggs, mushrooms (if using), and cherry tomatoes. Toss gently to combine. 🥗
4. Dress the Salad: Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to coat everything evenly. 🌿🍴
5. Serve: Plate the salad and enjoy immediately, or refrigerate the dressing separately until ready to serve. 🌿

Pro Tips:

• If you want a little extra crunch, add some toasted sunflower seeds or walnuts on top! 🌻
• For an extra creamy touch, you can add a few spoonfuls of crumbled blue cheese or feta cheese. 🧀
• This salad pairs wonderfully with grilled chicken, shrimp, or a side of garlic bread for a complete meal. 🍗🍤
