Cooking Steps
Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Cut bacon in half crosswise. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add bacon. Cook, flipping occasionally, until crispy, 5-7 min.** Remove the pan from heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside. Reserve bacon fat in the pan.
While bacon cooks, thinly slice mushrooms. Peel, then finely chop shallot. Halve tomatoes. Quarter egg. Season tomatoes and eggs with salt and pepper.
Heat the pan with reserved bacon fat over medium. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5-6 min.
Add shallots to the pan with mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to soften, 1 min. Remove the pan from heat, then stir in vinegar, mustard and honey. Transfer to a large bowl.
Add spinach, cheese and tomatoes to the large bowl with mushrooms and dressing. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then toss to combine.
Divide salad between plates. Top with eggs and crispy shallots, then crumble bacon over top.
