Warm Dressing for Spinach

Submitted by Bonnie G #2

"My Mom used to make a warm dressing that I loved, but has forgotten the recipe, I've been looking for something close to it and found this in Taste of Home magazine and it sounds like it comes close. Described as a tangy-sweet dressing perfect for large gatherings. Recommends keeping it warm in a slow cooker prior to serving. Good over spinach, just a little gives a lot of flavor. They even say it would be good mixed in with mashed potatoes but I'm not to sure of that. This is just the recipe for the dressing, pour over prepared spinach salad and sprinkle top with cooked and crumbled bacon. Serving is a guess as it depends on the amount you use."
