Bacon Walnut Spinach

By carvalhohm

Ingredients

• 4 slices bacon
• 2 1/2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
• 1 (10-ounce) package fresh spinach
• 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• Pinch of sugar (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Cook bacon in a large skillet until crisp; remove bacon, reserving 1 tablespoon drippings in skillet. Crumble bacon, and set aside.

Add vinegar to skillet; bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to loosen bacon particles that cling to bottom.

Add spinach, and cook, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 minutes or until wilted. Stir in bacon, walnuts, pepper, and, if desired, sugar. Serve immediately.

Notes:
If packaged fresh spinach is not available, you can substitute a pound of loose fresh spinach leaves. Just wash and trim the leaves, and you're ready to go!
