1
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Once cooked, remove and drain on paper towels. Reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon fat in the skillet.
2
Prepare the Vegetables
Chop the red onion, slice the Roma tomatoes, and slice the mushrooms. Set aside.
3
Make the Warm Bacon Dressing
In the skillet with the reserved bacon fat, add 2 tablespoons of vinegar (apple cider or red wine) and 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard. Whisk together and warm over low heat until combined.
4
Assemble the Salad
In a large bowl, combine the fresh spinach, chopped red onion, sliced Roma tomatoes, and sliced mushrooms. Crumble the cooked bacon on top.
5
Add Dressing and Cheese
Pour the warm bacon dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Sprinkle the asiago cheese over the top.
