Nancy, there was a recent request for a
wilted spinach salad. I had not eaten
one of these in years and for some
strange reason began craving one, so I
read many recipes on the internet and
found one that was perfect. It's easy
and very tasty; I've made it twice in
the last two weeks. My DH loves it!

Wilted Spinach Salad
12 ounces fresh spinach
6 green onions, sliced
6 radishes, sliced
2 hard-cooked eggs
2 slices bacon
1 1/2 tbsp. sugar
3 tbsp. vinegar
1 tbsp. water
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
Wash spinach; tear into bite-sized
pieces. Add onions and radishes.
Refrigerate, tightly covered. Peel and
slice eggs. Microwave bacon on high,
covered with paper towel, in 2-cup
microwave-safe measure 3 to 4 minutes or
until crisp. Remove bacon; set aside.
Add remaining ingredients to drippings.
To make ahead, prepare to this point.
Complete just before serving. Microwave
on high, uncovered, 45 to 60 seconds or
until mixture boils. Pour over greens in
salad bowl; toss lightly. Top with
sliced egg and crumbled bacon. A
delicate dressing that flavors the salad
as it wilts fresh greens.
Note: I made about half again as much
dressing the second time - much better.
