I really love this recipe, it is great for showers, BBQ's or served with an everyday lunch or dinner. It makes quite a bit of dressing so feel free to 1/2 it. Very simple! Ingredients:
1 (6 ounce) package prewashed spinach |
1 head lettuce, you can keep it simple and use a bag of salad mix also |
3 ounces swiss cheese, grated |
1/2 lb bacon, cooked and crumbled |
1 red onion, chopped also can slice |
8 ounces button mushrooms, sliced |
3/4 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar |
3/4 cup vegetable oil |
1 tablespoon poppy seed |
Directions:
1. Mix all dressing ingredients in a blender and process until well combined.
2. Add 3-4 oz of the mushrooms and 1/2 the onion to the dressing and let marinate for at least 30 minutes (the longer the better).
3. In a large bowl combine remaining salad ingredients, toss.
4. Pour a little dressing at a time over the top of the salad and toss, keep adding dressing as necessary (your preference).
5. Serve immediatly, *refrigeration time is not included in prep time*.
