- 2 Tablespoons ketchup
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
- 10 oz fresh spinach (washed and stemmed)
- 0.25 cup bacon (cooked and crumbled)
- 1.5 cups croutons (any variety)
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, white vinegar, ketchup, granulated sugar, and worcestershire sauce. Refrigerate overnight or several hours to allow the flavors to blend for best taste (optional).
- To serve, place spinach and bacon bits in a large bowl. Top with croutons and drizzle with the chilled dressing. Toss lightly and enjoy!
Notes
You can prepare the dressing up to two weeks in advance as its acidity preserves freshness. For alternative greens, spring mix or kale work wonderfully too.
