Ingredients

3 Strips Bacon

2-3 T Olive Oil

2 T Red Wine Vinegar

1 t Dijon Mustard

1 small clove garlic, minced

1/8 t salt

1 bunch (10 oz.) Spinach, coarse stems trimmed (about 5 C loosely packed)

1 Macintosh Apple peeled and cut into 1/2" pieces

8 Shavings Romano Cheese, each about 1" x 2"

Directions

Cook bacon in a skillet over medium-low heat, turning slices occasionally until crisp and browned. 8-10 minutes.

Whisk the vinegar, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper into the fat in pan. Keep warm.

In a large bowl, combine the spinach and apple.

Divide among 4 plates.

Oooo!! I've made one very very similar to this -- and you're right, it IS delicious! I was worried that the warm bacon fat dressing would be a bit 'greasy', but the garlic, vinegar, and apple cut it beautifully! Another great recipe! TY, Chihuahua :)

Hi kukla. I too was worried about too much grease. With the other ingredients, it balances itself beautifully and ever so slightly wilts the spinach. Great combination. I was surprised.
