LAYERED SPINACH SALAD recipe! | Easy! Tasty!

bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: smoked paprika

Turkey bacon reduces fat and calories while adding a smoky flavor.

feta cheese

🥗Healthier: cottage cheese

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Cottage cheese is lower in calories and provides a similar creamy texture.

Prepare the dressing by combining 1/4 cup of low-fat sour cream, 1/4 cup of mayonnaise, 1 clove of finely minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 tablespoon of poppy seeds, and a squeeze of lemon juice in a bowl.

Whisk the dressing ingredients together and season with kosher salt to taste.

Thin out the dressing with a little bit of milk if desired for a creamier consistency.

Transfer the dressing into a squeezy bottle using a funnel for easy application.

In a serving bowl, layer washed baby spinach leaves as the base.

Add a helping of microgreens on top of the spinach.

Sprinkle halved cherry tomatoes over the microgreens.

Add two hard-boiled eggs that have been cut up.

Sprinkle about four rashers of finely chopped cooked bacon on top.

Drizzle a little bit of the prepared dressing over the bacon.

Repeat the layering process two more times, adding spinach, microgreens, tomatoes, eggs, bacon, and dressing each time.

Finish with a final touch of dressing on top before serving.
