This salad is always a hit. I serve it over assorted salad greens or sometimes fresh spinach, adding different kinds of berries, radishes or tomatoes for color. This thick and flavorful dressing is slightly sweet with a light tang.-Barbara Birk, St. George, Utah

TANGY SPINACH SALAD & BACON DRESSING
Mom loved this salad, and it was always a treat when she would prepare it. Not having her recipe, I used Alton Brown's as the basis and improvised slightly. This was a hit with everyone. The secret is to add enough sugar to reach the desired sweetness level. Just keep tasting and stirring the dressing -- just don't eat all of it or you won't have anything to put on the salad!

Steps:
- Remove the stems from the spinach and wash, drain and pat dry thoroughly. Place into a large mixing bowl and set aside.
- While the eggs are hard boiling, fry the bacon and remove to a paper towel to drain, reserving 9 tablespoons of the rendered fat. Crumble the bacon and set aside. I like to fry bacon in the oven. Just spread out the slices on a cookie sheet and pop into a 400 degree oven for about 20 minutes. You can turn the bacon during the last 5 minutes to get it crispier.
- Transfer the bacon grease to a small saucepan set over low heat and whisk in the red wine vinegar, sugar and Dijon mustard. Season with a few small pinches each of kosher salt and black pepper.
- Add the mushrooms, cranberries and the sliced onion to the spinach and toss. Add the dressing and bacon and toss to combine. Divide the spinach between 8 plates or bowls and evenly divide the egg among them. Season with pepper, as desired. Serve immediately.

Tips:
- Use high-quality bacon: The bacon is the star of the show in this dressing, so it's important to use a good quality bacon that you enjoy the flavor of.
- Cook the bacon until it's crispy: Crispy bacon will add more flavor and texture to the dressing.
- Don't over-process the dressing: The dressing should be slightly chunky, with small pieces of bacon and onion. If you over-process it, it will become smooth and lose its texture.
- Taste the dressing before serving: Adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more vinegar, salt, or pepper.
- Serve the dressing immediately: The dressing is best when served fresh. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, but the flavor will be best on the first day.
