Vegan Bacon Apple Spinach Salad w/ Apple Cider Vinaigrette
This is the best salad I've ever had. It's fresh, crisp, loaded with vegan bacon, vegan feta, and a very tart yet flavorful apple cider vinaigrette. I usually choose kale for the base of my salads but for this one it has to be spinach. The flavors of the toppings and the spinach complements each other so well. It's the perfect light and fresh dinner or can be served as a side dish. Enjoy!

Notes
Spinach salads don't keep well when dressed. I highly recommend only making the portions that will be consumed immediately and keeping all the leftover ingredients separate. Store the dressing in an air tight jar and it will keep up to two weeks.
