A wonderful combination. The dressing was yummy. I did cut the oil down to 1/2 cup, but that's all I changed. The salad makes a very pretty presentation. A delicous way to eat your spinach! Thanx! -
This was easy to make and tasty. I thought 1 cup sounded like a lot of vegetable oil, so I cut it back to 3/4 cup. It was still quite a bit of sauce and I wish I hadn't put it all on the salad at once. The flavor was good and it was enjoyed by all. -
This was delicious but the dressing was a bit too sweet for me. Next time I make it I will leave out most of the sugar. My husband and kids loved this as it was, though. BTW I put the eggs as suggested by another chef into a cold oven and baked them in their shells and did the same with the bacon, for twenty minutes. Both were perfect.
