Always a Favorite!

I made Spinach Salad for dinner last night.  It is always a hit at home.  The dressing doesn't  "travel well" so I never take it to potlucks..you have to come to my house if you want some!

1 bag of  baby spinach ( I buy the baby becasue I don't want to spend the time tearing the regular into bite sizes pieces)**
1 good handful of fresh bean sprouts
1  8 oz. sliced water chestnuts, well drained
8 slices of bacon, well cooked and crumbled
3 hard boiled eggs, sliced

Dressing
1 C veg. oil
1/2 C sugar
1/3 catsup
1/4 C vinegar (NOT balsamic) I use red wine or white
1 T worcestershire sauce
1 med. onion grated

Mix well and add to salad just before serving.

**If you are using it as a main course, I just use one bag of spinach (serves 4) You can add fresh shrimp or chicken too!
If you use it as a salad you can use two bags of spinach, just toss really well to distribute the dressing.(serves 8)
