TOTAL TIME: 0:30
PREP: 0:30
LEVEL: EASY
YIELD: 4 SERVINGS

INGREDIENTS

BACON VINAIGRETTE

Fry each egg in the same sauté pan, cooking until the whites are set.
Assemble the salad: In a large bowl, combine spinach, feta, cherry tomatoes and remaining chopped bacon. Toss with vinaigrette.
Portion salad into two bowls, then top with fried egg. Serve immediately.
