Spinach, Bacon, and Avocado Salad image

I commandeered this recipe from a colleague after tasting it at a work party. The spinach/bacon/avocado combination is absolutely divine and can be vaguely healthy if turkey bacon is used!

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 ounces Baby Spinach, rinsed and spun dry
10 slices bacon, grilled until crisp and chopped
3 avocados, peeled, halved, stoned, and chopped
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved (optional)
3 ounces pine nuts, toasted (optional)
3 eggs, hard-boiled and sliced (optional)
6 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed (it really makes a difference!)

Steps:

  • Prep spinach, bacon, avocado, and tomato/pine nuts/egg, if using. Place in a bowl, tossing together with two large spoons. Set aside.
  • Add remaining ingredients to a small bowl and beat together with a fork until thoroughly blended.
  • Alternatively, place ingredients in capped jar and shake vigorously until well-blended.
  • Pour dressing over salad and toss well to combine. Serve immediately after taking some for yourself, because this will go quick!
