Preparation

Step 1

Place the spinach in a large bowl. In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, Splenda, pepper and salt; set aside. Fry the bacon until crisp. With a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to a paper towel lined plate. Measure out 3 tablespoons bacon grease and discard the rest.

Heat the bacon grease and sauté the onion 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 15 seconds. Add the vinegar mixture to the skillet and remove from the heat. Working quickly, scrape the brown bits off the bottom with a wooden spoon.

Pour the hot dressing over the spinach; add the bacon. Toss gently until spinach is slightly wilted. Divide among 4-6 salad plates and arrange eggs on the salads. Serve at once.
