Bacon, egg and spinach salad with roasted tomatoes

13 ingredients 30 min + 10 min Serves 2 openrecipes

Back bacon is far lower in fat than streaky bacon and if you remove the fat it’s actually quite a lean cut of meat. Served with crisp wholemeal croûtons and a perfectly poached egg, this is a salad to savour.
