Sandra's Spinach Salad
Spinach salad is a favorite for good reason. It is loaded with yummy toppings that work so well with the homemade dressing and spinach base. Serve it as a side or make a meal of it!
Servings: 8 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh spinach
- ½ pound bacon cooked crisp
- ⅓ cup ketchup
- ¼ cup vinegar
- ½ cup olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 medium onion grated
- 2 hard boiled eggs
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Wash 1 pound fresh spinach leaves and tear them into bite sized pieces
- Place spinach in salad bowl and top with mushrooms, bean sprouts and water chestnuts in desired proportions. (I didn’t have bean sprouts or water chestnuts on hand today, and I didn’t feel like a trip to the store, so I skipped them.)
- Mix ⅓ cup ketchup, ¼ cup vinegar, ½ cup olive oil, 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, ½ cup granulated sugar, and 1 medium onion together. Season with salt and pepper. Pour desired amount over spinach.
- Top with ½ pound bacon (crumbled) and 2 hard boiled eggs (sliced).
- Toss before serving.
Notes
Aunt Sandra used to put bean sprouts and water chestnuts on her spinach salad too. I usually don't add them, but feel free to go crazy with as many as you want!
