Yes, hot bacon dressing is yummy, but terribly unhealthy. Here’s a version that won’t clog your arteries –

Warm Honey Dijon Bacon Dressing

4 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup lime juice
2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard

Combine dressing ingredients in a small glass mixing bowl using a wire whisk.

Heat in microwave on high for 30 seconds, to just warm – not hot.

Serve with salad.
