Greens with Hot Bacon Dressing
Growing up in a German community, I ate this salad often. It's an old traditional dish—I recall my grandmother talking about her mother making this recipe.
As a variation, the old-timers in my family cut up some boiled potatoes on dinner plates, then serve the warm salad mixture on top. —Robert Enigk, Canastota, New York

I only had lettuce on hand so I omitted the spinach and doubled up on the lettuce. It was pretty good. I would suggest maybe a hard-boiled egg to be added to the salad toppings.
We made ours with leaf lettuce , onions and crumbled bacon . Mom would make a water vinegar and sugar combination that she poured into the hot bacon drippings . Then she cooked it until hot . Lastly, it was pored over the lettuce leaves . We called it “wilted lettuce” salad . I loved it . Can’t eat it as much now due to my heart health.
I grew up with this delicious salad, mostly with endive. I've tried to duplicate the recipe by memory since my parents are long gone. I am excited to try this, I know it will be delicious!
Quick, easy and so tasty. Nice and light. I omitted the egg in the dressing. My newest salad winner. VFE. I recommend this one.
This salad was colorful and simple. The dressing was velvety and luxurious. I would make this again.
