Wilted spinach salad with warm bacon vinaigrette
This was just a quick and pretty healthy lunch. Yes, there's bacon , but only one slice and it's made from frozen pre-cooked bacon so most of the fat has been rendered from it.
Olive oil Shallot, finely minced 1 slice cooked bacon, minced Red wine vinegar Dijon mustard
Heat olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook for a few minutes. Add the bacon and cook for another couple minutes.
Reduce the heat, add the vinegar, mustard and stir or whisk to combine thoroughly. Heat for a minute then turn off the heat. Add salt and freshly ground pepper.
Add fresh spinach and toss or stir. Cover for a few minutes until the spinach is softened.
Serve.
This would probably be good with a little goat cheese or bleu cheese on it, too.
