Hot Bacon Dressing for Spinach Salad
I am looking for the spinach salad dressing. When we are in Penn. it is on the salad bars quite often in a crock pot, served warm, to put over a fresh spinach salad. It has bacon in it and sometimes seems to be a little thicker then other times. Does anyone have a recipe for this?

Nope, but I'll be checking back to see if anyone comes up with it. Thanks for asking :-)

This came from Allrecipe.com I have not tried it, However it looks like it would be very good, Maybe reduce the sugar a little bit. If you try it please let me know how it turns out. :-)

Beat eggs, sugar, vinegar, & water. Add mixture to diced bacon & bring to a boil. Thicken with 1 Tblsp flour or cornstartch. Also let bacon grease cool before adding ingrediants(so the eggs don't cook!!) ENJOY!!! |

I cook in a hospital cafeteria and this is going on the salad bar the next time I do salads. They love spinach salads and this sounds so good. Thanks for the recipes.

I made this for our quilt guild Christmas Party last night. It was a big hit. Thank you.

Thank you very much. I get the spinach salad at Patti's Settlement in Grand Rivers, KY. I have always wanted to know how to make the dressing. Can't wait to try it.
