Spinach Salad

My mother made this salad and my family (those who don't have texture problems) loves it. She got this recipe from the Columbus Dispatch in Ohio. It uses everyday ingredients on hand. Update: I cut the amounts for the dressing in half, to decrease the amount of left over dressing.

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Mix spinach, eggs, bacon and croutons together.
  2. 2
    For dressing, mix onion, sugar, salt, pepper, celery seed, vinegar and oil.(I mix up the dressing and let it sit for an hour or two, in the refrigerator, to let the flavors meld before serving).
  3. 3
    Drizzle all with dressing to taste. This dressing keeps indefinitely in refrigerator.

Yum! I halved the recipe and wished I had not. My girls really enjoyed the flavors that they were Mom, where's the rest? LOL. Thank you for posting made by member of "Cooks With Dirty Faces" for ZWT5

    Loved it!! This is a classic combination - one that I often order at restaurants because I'm too lazy to make it at home (lol). This recipe has changed my perspective. It was simple to throw together, especially since I froze extra cooked bacon the other day just for special dishes like this I too used less sugar - but that is my preference. Thanks for a salad that we'll be enjoying again soon. Made for Ali Baba's Babes for ZWT5. Thanks diner524!

    Great salad. Still have heaps of dressing in the fridge. Followed the recipe exactly, except that I couldn't bring myself to use more than 1/2 cup of sugar. That was plenty. Made and enjoyed for Zaar World Tour.
