Stumped on getting your kids to eat spinach salad? Try this easy recipe with lots of Cheddar cheese (and bacon!) for a yummy spinach salad with crunchy croutons.
Ingredients
Preparation
Cut bacon crosswise into thin strips. In skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer to paper towel to drain. (Make-ahead: Cover and set aside for up to 1 hour; reheat 1 tsp/5 mL of the bacon fat to continue.)
In heatproof measuring cup, mix garlic with 1 tsp (5 mL) of the hot bacon drippings. Whisk in vinegar; let stand for 1 minute. Whisk in oil, salt and pepper.
Place spinach in large serving bowl. Sprinkle with croutons, bacon and all but 1/3 cup (75 mL) of the cheese; toss with dressing. Garnish with remaining cheese.
