Spinach Salad

This is a very good but not low-cal salad! Makes enough for a crowd--a large Tupperward bowl works well--and is always a crowd pleaser! To make it a little more elegant, use a glass salad bowl as it is layered. I used to make it for our annual July 4th picnics!

Layer:

1 bunch spinach--washed, dried, torn
1 head lettuce, torn
1 purple onion--sliced and separated
3/4 # sliced mushrooms
1# grated cheese
1# bacon--cooked, drained and crumbled

Dressing:

Blend in blender:

2/3 cup white vinegar
1 cup oil
2/3 cup sugar
1 green onions, chopped in 1" pieces, stems included
1 1/2 t salt
1 t yellow mustard
2 t celery seed
