So, we are eating more leafy greens. And this is the best:
Here's what we do...
Anne + Doug's More Leafy Greens
1 bag washed spinach, (or spinach, swiss chard, kale combo)
3 slices bacon, in 1" pieces (omit for veggie version)
3 whole walnuts, cracked open
1 - 2 cups sliced mushrooms
8 - 12 small blue cheese cubes
Open spinach and scatter into a beautiful oval serving dish, about 12" x 18"
Cook bacon (if using) in a small cast iron frying pan and set aside
Fry walnut pieces in the same pan (about 3 mins) and set aside
Cook mushrooms in the same pan (about 5 mins) and set aside
Five minutes before serving, scatter bacon, walnuts, mushrooms, blue cheese over spinach.
Heat about 6 tbls maple syrup in the frying pan
Pour over spinach, (dispersing evenly) followed by about 6 tbls cider vinegar and 6 tbls olive oil
S + P to taste
Let sit for a few minutes
Present this beautiful dish to the dinner table, (amidst the oohs and ahhs)
Toss well and serve.
