Hot Bacon Dressing (For Spinach Salad) created by PalatablePastime

This is one of our all time favorite dressings to use on spinach salad. We like to add some chopped boiled eggs to our fresh spinach along with sliced fresh mushrooms. This is enough dressing for one-half of a small bag of spinach. EDITED: To say this is enough for half a bag of cleaned spinach.

This is NOT the recipe to use if you like lots of dressing. I quadrupled all the liquids and then just kept adding more to get enough for only two of us and a half pound of spinach. It also says 4 strips of bacon but not how much grease to wind up with. Turkey bacon doesn't leave hardly any so more grease has to be added but how much? I'm finding a different recipe the next time.

Yummy - I doubled the vinegars (1 1/2 white vinegar and 1/2 balsamic) as well, and added some olive oil, 1/4 tsp ginger and a pinch of celery salt - then a sprinkle of cornstarch to thicken it up. Even my hubs who's not a fan of sweet dressings loved it!

I doubled the dressing, added tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs and fresh pepper. It was a hit.

Another tasty recipe from Luby! I used slightly less than half a bag of spinach, and the dressing quantity worked out well. Thanks also for the suggestions of including chopped eggs, tomatoes and cracked pepper--all were added and enjoyed.

I grew up with this as one of my aunt's signature salads; it's always been one of my very favorites. Toss in a few cherry or grape tomatoes and it's like the most decadent BLT you've ever tried. The only thing I add is freshly cracked black pepper. Thanks so much for posting an old favorite!
