I roasted a few shrimps and placed them over fresh greens, drizzled with the dressing, and topped with crumbled bacon and homemade croutons.

Ingredients:

  • 4 slices thick cut bacon
  • 1/4 cup red onion or shallot, diced fine
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
  • 2 T Dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 T cornstarch
  • 1 T hot sauce

1. Cook bacon in a large skillet. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve for topping your salad.

2. Add onions to the bacon grease and saute until lightly browned.

3. Add the Dijon mustard and stir well.

4. In a bowl, mix the water, honey, and red wine vinegar with a whisk. Whisk in the corn starch. Add mixture to the pan and mix well.

5. Bring sauce to a boil, stirring continuously, and continue boiling until sauce thickens. Remove from heat, let cool slightly, and serve. Refrigerate unused portion.
