Warm Fall Spinach Salad

Cook bacon in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon from pan; drain on paper towels. Discard drippings (do not wipe pan clean). Add shallots to pan; sauté over medium heat 1 minute or until lightly browned. Add cranberries, vinegar, and broth; bring to a simmer, and cook 4 minutes, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Remove from heat; stir in oil and brown sugar.

Place 1 1/2 cups spinach on each of 4 plates; drizzle 1/4 cup warm dressing over each salad. Crumble bacon, and sprinkle evenly over salads; top each salad with 1 tablespoon pecans.
