- if you keep real bacon bits on hand you can whip this up quite easily,
- using a measuring cup, put the bacon grease in the cup and heat in
- the microwave till hot, add the vinegar, sugar & spices, sprinkle
- bacon peices over salad, then pour hot bacon dressing over - toss
- & serve - my mom likes to use sugar substitute instead of real sugar
- for a similar affect - a nice thing about doing
- it this way, you can make an individual salad reduce all the
- proportions, toss & enjoy
