Method

Place spinach in large salad bowl and top with mushrooms, onions and cheese. Cook bacon until crisp, remove from pan and drain, reserving drippings. Place bacon atop salad in bowl. For dressing: Add olive oil to bacon drippings in pan over medium heat, whisking to blend and scraping browned bits from bottom of pan. Add vinegar, mustard and brown sugar; whisk just until blended and heated through. Immediately drizzle over salad, tossing to coat spinach leaves evenly. Serve immediately.
