📝 Preparation Steps
1
To make the bacon dressing:
2
In a large skillet over medium heat, fry bacon until crisp, about ⏱️ 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.
3
Pour rendered bacon fat into a measuring cup. Pour off all but 1/4 cup, or add olive oil to reach 1/4 cup. Return fat to skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4
Add onion, sugar, vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste (I like 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper). Cook until onion is softened, about ⏱️ 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
5
To make the salad:
6
In a very large bowl, add spinach. Immediately pour over warm bacon dressing and toss to wilt. Portion the salad onto individual plates if desired and garnish with bacon and eggs.
