Ingredients

• Salad:
• 4 slices bacon
• 1/4 cup prepared honey mustard dressing*
• 4 cups fresh baby spinach
• 1 small red onion, sliced into rounds
• 1 small apple, sliced thin
• 1 cup cooked chicken, chopped into bit-sized pieces
• Honey Mustard Dressing:
• 1/4 cup raw honey
• 2 tablespoons Dijon-style mustard
• 2 tablespoons unrefined extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons raw cider vinegar.

Preparation

Step 1

1. Fry four slices bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon from the pan, turn off the heat and gently stir ¼ cup honey mustard dressing into the rendered bacon grease. Set aside to cool slightly.

2. Toss remaining ingredients together, garnish with fried bacon and dress with the mixture of bacon grease and honey mustard dressing.

3. Prepare the honey mustard dressing by whisking together raw honey, Dijon-style mustard, unrefined extra virgin olive oil and raw cider vinegar. You can always substitute this dressing with a prepared dressing of your choice.
