This was a very good salad, a little sweet. Loved the bacon. Like another reviewer wrote, don't toss too early.

Love this recipe. Made it for my bacon loving friends and got rave reviews.

Even my no-greens eater made an exception for this since there was bacon in it. This was very good. Just be sure to wait until dinner is ready to toss with oranges and bacon or it will get soggy.
