Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups baby spinach
- 2 large hard-boiled eggs
- 4 slices bacon
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 large avocado
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 0.25 cup almond slices
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon sugar-free honey substitute
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Start by preparing the bacon. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the slices until they are crispy, which should take about 6-8 minutes.
While the bacon is cooking, prepare the vegetables. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half, dice the avocado, thinly slice the red onion, and peel and quarter the hard-boiled eggs.
Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on paper towels to drain excess fat. Chop the bacon into bite-sized pieces once cooled.
In a large salad bowl, place the baby spinach. On top, arrange the cherry tomatoes, avocado, red onion slices, quartered eggs, bacon pieces, and almond slices.
To prepare the honey mustard dressing, in a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, sugar-free honey substitute, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Drizzle the honey mustard dressing over the salad just before serving and toss gently to evenly coat all ingredients.
Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful and nutritious keto-friendly salad.
