This was delicious. I used all spinach and no radicchio. I added a bit more blue cheese and bacon and adjusted the points accordingly but it made a yummy and filling dinner. I will definitely make it again.
Really filling and delicious! We will definitely be making this again.
This recipe was delicious! My husband said it was the best salad that he's ever had and is currently chopping bacon so we can take leftovers to work! The bacon was such a treat and the flavors mixed together so well. Will definitely make this recipe again!
I didn't use the chicken and I used a Zero calorie rasberry vinaigrette dressing. I warmed the dressing with the bacon mushrooms and garlic, then poured it on the spinach. I used apples and red onion to garnish and left out the mustard and cheese.
