A little goes a long way, or a little can make a world of difference. Come visit my world of being creative in the kitchen. I associate moments and events in my life with food. So a lot of the recipes I share will have a story behind it.

Spinach Salad
The simplest, bestest Spinach Salad eva'! My roommate during college used to make this often and it's all we would eat for dinner. It's extremely filling and full of flavor.
Ingredients:
Spinach
Bacon Bits (real or fake)
Hard Boiled Egg, sliced
Red Onion, thin slices
Balsamic Dressing
Instructions:
For the dressing, take a dry Italian packet and use balsamic for the vinegar.
You can layer the salad, or just dump the spinach in a bowl and sprinkle with the rest of the ingredients. I prefer the layer method, that way the goodies are throughout. The quantity of ingredients is all up to you.

The carrots are all nice and shiny from the honey...Mom's original recipe!Nuff' said!
I used Brandy instead bourbon.
