Ree Drummond amps up the flavor for her salads.

“This is a classic spinach salad at its core, but there’s such a delectable mix of cooked and raw ingredients, so every single bite is different, says the celebrity chef. "There's the tender crispness of the spinach, the cool hard boiled eggs, the crisp bacon bits and the caramelized red onions and mushrooms," she describes of the "gorgeous combination." "Then to top it off, the warm, tangy dressing just pulls everything together beautifully!"

The Food Network star features this “make it your own” dish in her new cookbook The Pioneer Woman Cooks: The Essential Recipes . “The bacon dressing is a delicious drizzle for roasted asparagus, grilled chicken or even a caprese salad, believe it or not!” says Drummond.
