If you like fresh spinach you should like this. Makes a good side for any BBQ.
Suzies Spinach Salad
Salad:
1 to 2 pkg. spinach or baby spinach, 12 to 20 oz.
1 or two cans of bean sprouts
1 can sliced water chestnuts
1 lb. bacon, fried crisp & crumbled
4 hard boiled eggs chopped or sliced
Note: the bacon and eggs can be added on top of finished salad for a nicer presentation
Dressing:
1 cup of salad oil
2/3 cup sugar
½ cup ketchup
1 Tbs. Worcestershire sauce
1 med onion sliced thin, or chopped
1 tsp. salt
½ cup vinegar
Mix the salad ingredients in a large bowl. Whisk or blend the dressing ingredients except for the onion or I find it easy to mix in a quart ball jar and shake up. Pour dressing over salad and mix well. If adding the bacon & eggs last, garnish each serving and serve. A large salad could serve as an entrée or serve as a side salad. Without the bacon & eggs it would be a great vegetarian salad.
Note: the dressing is really enough for two large bags of spinach. Suzie added the bacon and chopped eggs to the salad, I like to serve sliced eggs and bacon on the side.
