Spinach Salad with Bacon and Fuji Apples covered with homemade Honey Mustard Dressing is a delicious easy to make salad recipe.
I promised you this Fuji Apple Spinach Bacon Salad With a creamy homemade Honey Mustard dressing last week when I shared my recipe for Honey Mustard Chicken, since they go together like Peanut Butter and Jelly, you can't have one without the other!
It's really an easy dinner to make and I strongly suggest making both since they pair perfectly together!
The smokiness of the bacon makes a perfect addition to the sweet fuji apples and honey mustard vinaigrette; the perfect disguise to sneak raw spinach into my boys!
We all know everything is better with bacon.
You could leave the mushrooms out of this salad if they aren't your thing but they are well disguised between the smokey bacon, apples, and vinaigrette.
I skipped adding cheese in this recipe to keep it simple, but gorgonzola would make a nice addition if your looking for something a bit richer. It's really not missing it though, and has plenty of flavors to leave you satisfied.
Fuji Apple Spinach Bacon Salad With Creamy Honey Mustard Vinaigrette makes a fun side or light lunch, and is perfect to bring to your next BBQ or Potluck!
