Fry bacon until crispy. Set aside on paper towels to cool. Save the grease for the salad dressing (see note).

Layer the salad in a large bowl: spinach, onion, egg, cheese, crumbled bacon.

Mix all dressing ingredients well with a small whisk or a fork in a small measuring cup. Adjust ingredients to suit your taste. Rewarm dressing in microwave for about 10 seconds, if needed. Drizzle over salad while still warm.

Note: If you have ready-made bacon crumbles, you can substitute 1/4 cup of those warmed in the microwave for the bacon in the salad. Use stored bacon grease or lard for the dressing.
