BACON SPINACH SALAD
Even our kids-who normally don't care for spinach-can't resist this salad with its rich dressing and crumbled bacon. Of course, you can use other greens instead of spinach. -Gretchen Kuipers, Platte, South Dakota

SPINACH SALAD WITH GORGONZOLA CROUTONS AND BACON TWISTS
Delicious, attractive and versatile salad. Use the croutons and twists to garnish other dishes and the dressing can be used in other ways as well. The simple to make garnishes look more complicated than they are. Makes 2 generous servings. I've not listed cook time because other steps can be accomplished while the oven is being used.

Steps:
- Gorgonzola Croutons: Preheat oven to 375°; mash cheese and butter together with a fork and spread half on one side of each of the slices of bread; cut into 1" pieces and place on a baking sheet, cheese side up.
- If not making bacon twists go ahead and bake croutons until golden, about 15 minutes; if making bacon twists, the croutons and bacon can be baked together, so prepare the bacon twists.

Steps:
- Make the hard boiled eggs, if using (or make them in advance). Chop them into bite-sized pieces.
- Add the pecans, soy sauce, maple syrup and smoked paprika to a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. When it just starts to bubble, reduce the heat to low but still slowly bubbling. Simmer 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. In the last minute when the liquid is mostly evaporated, stir continuously until it is totally cooked out and the nuts start clumping together. Immediately remove from the heat and transfer the pecans to a sheet of parchment paper in a single layer. Sprinkle with 2 pinches kosher salt and allow to cool to room temperature, about 5 minutes.
- Make the Balsamic Vinaigrette.
- Thinly slice the shallot. If using apple instead of hard boiled egg, thinly slice the apple.
- Place the spinach on plates or in bowls. Top with hard boiled eggs or apple slices, smoky pecans, sliced shallot, and feta cheese crumbles.

SPINACH SALAD WITH GORGONZOLA CROUTONS AND BACON TWISTS
This came from the 2004 edition of The Gourmet Cookbook, edited by Ruth Reichl. I microwaved the bacon twists, but I'll provide the recipe as written in the book. The dressing for this was so good my daughter wanted to scrape the blender pitcher. As I typed this in I realized I misread it when I made it and used 2 tablespoons of honey rather than teaspoons. The additional honey certainly did no harm! Preparation time does not include hard-boiling the eggs.

Though this salad was originally meant for mache, baby spinach is an acceptable substitute. The spinach is dressed with a Dijon vinegarette and topped with croutons, lardons of bacon, and hard boiled egg that has been heated in a saute pan.
