Warm Bacon Vinaigrette Recipe

Recipe Photo

"This spinach salad makes for a great starter or even a meal by itself. Instead of following tradition and using olive oil in the dressing, we opted for the fat rendered off the bacon to give the vinaigrette optimal flavor. Game plan: To make cutting the bacon easier, chill it in the freezer for about 20 to 25 minutes until it firms up. This recipe was featured as part of both our Winter Cabin Fever menu and our Supercharge with Superfoods photo gallery...."
