Salad
10 -12 ounces fresh spinach, washed and torn into bit-size pieces (I use the pre-packaged baby spinach)
1/4 cup minced red onion
Dressing
6 slices bacon, chopped
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup Splenda granular (or sugar if desired)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Garnish
2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1 hard-boiled egg, sliced

1
Place prepared spinach in a large bowl. Add onion. Refrigerate, tightly covered.
2
Fry chopped bacon until crisp; remove to paper towel and set aside.
3
Allow bacon drippings to cool for 5 minutes or so (until it is no longer sizzling). In the frying pan, combine the drippings with vinegar, Splenda (or sugar), mayonnaise, salt and pepper and blend well.
4
You can now refrigerate all ingredients until just before serving, storing the dressing in a covered microwaveable container. OR you can use the dressing right out of the pan and proceed to tossing the salad.
5
When ready to serve, microwave the dressing on HIGH for 30 to 45 seconds, or until mixture boils.
6
Toss the chopped egg with the spinach salad then pour the hot dressing over greens mixture; toss again lightly.
