One Bowl Meal

Trying to get creative with the fresh produce that is leftover at the end of a week.  Decided to give a hearty spinach salad a try using everything in the fridge that looked like it belonged in a salad.  It was delicious and filling.

Spinach Salad

Spinach Salad

6 slices bacon
6 oz. fresh spinach
2 green onions, sliced, white and green parts separated
2 hard boiled eggs, chopped
1 egg, beaten
2 Tbs sugar
2 Tbs rice wine vinegar

In frying pan, cook bacon until crisp.  Remove from pan, reserving 3 Tbs of bacon grease, and chop bacon.  Set pan with grease aside.

Remove and discard spinach stems, if desired.  Coarsely chop spinach and put in large bowl.  Add the green parts of the onions, hard boiled eggs and chopped bacon to bowl with spinach.  If desired, add tomatoes, sliced mushrooms, chopped avocado and anything else you would like in a salad. 

In a small bowl, combine beaten egg, sugar and vinegar.

Heat bacon grease in pan over medium high heat then add reserved white parts of onions and cook 30 seconds.  Slowly pour in the egg mixture and stir until thickened.  Pour hot mixture over spinach salad and serve immediately.
