Crispy Salmon on Orange and Bacon Spinach

This was such a lovely, light and tasty dinner.  It goes perfect with the mashed white beans.  The salmon is crisp and light, and everything just blends together.  Enjoy!
Ingredients:
-1 bag baby spinach
-5 slices bacon, cut into thin strips
-4 (4 oz) fillets salmon
-salt and pepper
-1/2 cup orange juice
-1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
Directions:
In large nonstick skillet cook the bacon until crisp.  Remove bacon on plate lined with paper towels.  Pour off all but 1 Tbs of the bacon fat. 
Season salmon with salt and pepper on both sides.  Place fillets into skillet with bacon fat.  Saute salmon until cooked through (about 4-5 minutes per side).  Transfer salmon to a plate.  Pour off all fat from skillet.  Add the orange juice and spinach immediately to skillet.  Cook stirring frequently until spinach wilts.  Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.  Return cooked bacon and spinach to skillet.  Simmer until salmon is reheated.  Enjoy!
