Fry the bacon until crisp. Drain and crumble, keeping the bacon grease in the pan.
In a small bowl, combine the mustard with the apple cider vinegar. Set aside.
Reheat the pan you used to fry the bacon. Add the spinach and onion, stirring to coat with the rendered bacon grease.
Quickly stir in the mustard-vinegar mixture. Add generous pinches of salt and sugar and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Keep on heat until the spinach is just wilted, less than 1 minute.
Divide into 2 bowls.
Sprinkle with crumbled bacon and serve immediately.
