Easy comfort food. I cooked the bacon first & drained the oil before adding the meat. I added a clove of garlic & 1/2 cup of celery with the other veggies, as well as 1 t of mexican oregano, salt, and pepper when adding the tomato sauce. I also subbed instant brown rice. The result was an enjoyable meal using pantry staples. Thank you for sharing the recipe! Made for Spring 2010 Pick A Chef.
