Spinach Salad

1 shallot, peeled & quartered
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard

Throw it all in a small food processor and blend.

I added the red wine vinegar at the end because it was a bit too sweet for my taste. But you can adjust any of the ingredients according to your tastes. Onion would work in place of the shallot, more or less sugar, any flavor vinegar really.......have fun.

Toss it with fresh spinach, sliced egg, bacon and tomato. yummy!!
