Instructions

Have bacon fried and eggs boiled.
In a large skillet with the bacon grease and heat turned off, add the dressing ingredients. With a whisk, blend well. If the bacon grease has become solid, then warm until just melted. When the grease gets too hot it will wilt your spinach. The flavor will be the same but presentation may not be appealing.
Right before you are ready to serve, toss the spinach with the warm dressing. It takes just a minute for the dressing and bacon dressing to be tossed together. Do not turn the heat on for this or you will end up sautéing your salad.
Add the remaining ingredients to your salad and serve immediately.
