Bermuda Triangle Spinach Salad

Obviously I have been on a cooking craze. At the beginning of this week I determined to plan out the meals and try new things. And I did it! One whole week of planned meals and lots of food in the house and no "it's five o'clock and I have no idea what to make for dinner AGAIN" moments. Yay. :-)

Well this salad is fantastic. I found the original recipe here, and below is my rendition of it. They had a brilliant idea for how to boil eggs (put the eggs in BEFORE you put the water in----practically GENIOUS!). And this dressing is divine. So lovely. Makes way more than you'll need for the amount of salad, great leftover!

SALAD: Boil the eggs. Cook the bacon, then crumble/chop. Chop the mushrooms. Wash the spinach.

Assemble everything in large bowl. Serve with dressing (below).

6 eggs

1/3 lb of turkey bacon

1-2 pounds of spinach

sliced fresh mushrooms

DRESSING: Blend the following ingredients

1 chopped onion

2/3 cup white sugar

1 tsp salt

1 cup vegetable oil

1/3 cup apple cider vinegar

1/2 tsp black pepper

1 tsp celery seed

1 Tbsp mustard (preferably Dijon)

This recipe is entirely from my dear old friend Kahlia. Check out her cooking blog HERE. I won't recount the recipe here, since I took it from her. But I shall simply say this: what an awesome new way to cook an egg! I never knew... :-)

Also, a few pictures...I used the veggies we had in our fridge (which happened to be zucchini, squash, and bok choy). Also I picked the green onions from my new balcony garden! YAY. :-)

having successfully chopped my veggies.....

cracked the egg in the middle of the wok.....

And, if you are feeling exceptionally brave, try adding a child into the mix. Makes any eating experience that much more exciting. :-)
