Warm Bacon Spinach Salad
By á-9504
When the dressing is warm, I pour it over the greens and set it aside while I prepare the rest of the meal. The heat wilts the greens, which are still slightly warm when served
Ingredients
- 3 bacon strips, diced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 egg
- 6 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3 cups torn fresh spinach
- 1/2 cup seasoned croutons

Preparation
Step 1
1. In a skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon to paper towels. Drain, reserving 1 tablespoon drippings. Stir flour into drippings until smooth. In a large bowl, beat egg; add water, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Slowly pour into skillet. Bring to a boil; boil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Place spinach in a bowl. Remove dressing from the heat; stir in reserved bacon. Immediately spoon desired amount over spinach; add croutons and toss to coat. Serve warm. Store leftover dressing in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Before serving, reheat over low heat just until heated through.
