Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Warm Spinach Salad with Bacon and Eggs.
Step 1
Start by placing six eggs in a medium saucepan, covering them with cold water.
Step 2
Bring the water to a rolling boil, then remove the saucepan from the heat.
Step 3
Cover it and let the eggs steep in the hot water for 10 to 12 minutes.
Step 4
Once done, cool the eggs under cold running water, peel them, and chop them into bite-sized pieces.
Step 5
Meanwhile, in a large, deep skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until it reaches a perfect golden brown.
Step 6
Drain the bacon, crumble it, and set it aside, but be sure to reserve about half a cup of the delicious drippings in the skillet.
Step 7
In a spacious bowl, combine fresh spinach and sliced green onions, tossing them together for an even mix.
Step 8
Gently heat the reserved bacon drippings over low heat.
Step 9
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the remaining two eggs, sugar, white vinegar, and red wine vinegar until well blended.
Step 10
Pour this mixture into the warm drippings, whisking continuously until the dressing thickens, which should take about a minute.
Step 11
Drizzle the warm dressing over the spinach and green onion blend, then add the crumbled bacon and toss everything together to ensure a delightful coating.
Step 12
Finally, crown your salad with the chopped hard-boiled eggs for a beautiful presentation and a burst of flavor.
