This is somewhat based on a Jamie Oliver recipe, and you could also use parma ham in the place of
the turkey bacon (but remember to factor in any extra points).

For one person, you need: -a big plateful of fresh spinach (baby spinach is nice for this salad)
-2 turkey rashers/pieces of bacon -handful of thinly sliced mushrooms (chestnut mushrooms are nice
and have more flavour than regular button mushrooms) -Worcester sauce -1 egg -1 tbsp. of creamy
low cal/low fat salad dressing -salt and pepper to taste

Boil the egg until it is almost hard (this will take roughly 7-8 minutes) and sauté the mushrooms
in some non-stick cooking spray and a few shots of Worcester sauce. In the meantime, grill/broil
the bacon until very crispy. When the egg is cooked, place in cold water so that you can handle it
to peel it easily. On the spinach, drizzle the salad dressing, cut up the

bacon

You could even put this salad on a lovely warm ciabatta roll (for another 2-3 UK points) for a
more filling meal.

YUM!

Cheers, Petal
