Directions
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 , I was looking for a quick salad dressing and made just the dressing I was so impressed with the taste that I plan to go back and make the entire recipe Very good, very very easy , Delicious salad! I can’t believe no one has reviewed it until now The croutons were wonderful (used blue cheese) and I really liked the texture of the bacon twists–lovely presentation The dressing goes great with the spinach The only ingredient I left out was the egg I will definitely make this again, but I also intend to make the croutons and bacon twists on their own for other dishes
