About the Recipe
I had to find this recipe (Taste of Home) because when I make this, I do it just like my mom -- I don't measure anything! You may need to play around with the vinegar/sugar balance. I add more sugar, personally.
Ingredients
6 bacon strips, cut up
1/4 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons water
2 green onions, sliced
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
8 to 10 cups torn leaf lettuce
2 hard-boiled large egg, chopped
Preparation
Step 1
In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, place on paper towels to drain.
Step 2
To the hot drippings, add the vinegar, water, onions, sugar, salt and pepper, stirring until sugar is dissolved.
Step 3
Place lettuce in a salad bowl; immediately pour dressing over and toss lightly. Top with egg and bacon. Serve immediately!
Note: Some like a little fresh sliced onion on top as well. Any leaf lettuce, greens or spinach. I've even had it on dandelion greens!
