Becky's Grandma's Egg & Spinach Salad image

This delicious salad was served at a party and I asked the hostess, Becky, for her recipe. This was from her Grandma. The original recipe called for 16 ounces of spinach (torn), and only 6 slices of bacon. I have listed the recipe as Becky prepared it, she used about 2 1/2 bags of baby spinach and 18 slices of cooked bacon. The salad will get too weepy if left sitting too long, so plan to eat it all right away, this doesn't keep well once the dressing has been added. When I made this, I used a 250 g bag of baby spinach, about 8 strips of bacon, half the dressing, and I still used the 3 eggs.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my salad didn't turn out as good as I hoped.

I'm not a big fan of spinach, but I really enjoyed this salad. The dressing is what makes it.
