SAUTéED SPINACH WITH BACON

Steps:

• Cut the bacon into small pieces (I use kitchen shears to do this quickly) and fry in a large skillet until crispy.
• Transfer the cooked bacon to paper towel lined plate. Leave about 2-3 tablespoons of bacon fat in the pan.
• Add the onion and sauté over medium heat until it's softened and starting to lightly brown (about 5-7 minutes).
• Add in about half of the spinach and toss with tongs (yes it'll seem like a ton of spinach, but keep tossing it and it'll get coated with the bacon fat and onions and start to wilt). As it wilts, add in the rest of the spinach a large handful at a time (keep tossing) until it's all wilted. This will take about 5 minutes.
• Add in the cooked bacon and toss. Season with salt & pepper as needed and serve right away.
