Bakin’ With Bacon and Teddy

Bakin’ With The King AND Assistant SammyP

 

So I have my Assistant Chef Sammy Pilch from his blog 15andMeowing HERE  with me again today – Sammy knows the ropes around here as he has helped out before when his Mom has sent in a recipe for us to try out.    Thanks for being with me Sam!     This recipe is another version of something we’ve made for you before but this is just too yummy NOT to pass on.    And if you didn’t try the previous recipes for a BLT Salad you’re gonna want to try this one!    Spinach replaces the lettuce giving this salad a unique taste.
