How Do I Make Sweet and Savory Summer Salad with Berries and Bacon?

Here is how you make Sweet and Savory Summer Salad with Berries and Bacon:

Cut the thick-sliced bacon into about 1" pieces. Spread out on a baking sheet and bake in a 450 degree oven until browned and starting to crisp, about 10 minutes. Turn the oven to a low broil, add the pecans to the bacon pieces, stir to coat all evenly. Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the bacon and pecans. Place under broiler on top rack of oven until sugar appears to have dissolved. Take out of oven immediately and set aside to cool. (i set it on a paper towel to absorb any excessive grease).To prepare the salad: Mix spinach, blueberries, strawberries and cucumbers gently in a large salad serving bowl. To prepare the dressing: Mix equal amounts of aged strawberry balsamic vinegar and EVOO in a covered container and shake well to mix thoroughly. (We use this salad dressing all the time on many types of salads, so I mix it in larger batches and just stored covered on counter).Sprinkle the Feta cheese crumbles over the salad. Add the cooled bacon and pecan mixture. Toss very gently to mix well.Serve with the dressing on the side. The nutritional analysis allows 2 TB of dressing per serving. You may want more or less to taste.Serving Size:?Makes (4) 2-1/2 cup servings, suitable as a light entree
