Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside on paper towels to drain. Leave the bacon fat in the skillet.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same skillet with the bacon fat, add chopped garlic, diced bell pepper, and sliced leeks. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until vegetables are tender.

  3. 3

    Add Spinach

    Add the fresh spinach to the skillet. Toss it with the sautéed vegetables until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Season and Serve

    Crumble the cooked bacon into the salad. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with fresh herbs, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently and serve immediately.
