Penny's Bacon & Tomato Soup
Canned tomatoes, bacon and chicken broth make this an easy soup to throw together! Perfect paired with a nice slice of southern cornbread. My mother got it from a nice restaurant around Clayton, GA. Can't think of the name of it though. A very tasty and easy soup.

DIRECTIONS
- Cook bacon until crispy. Drain, reserving 4 T. of drippings.
- Sauté onion in 1 T. of bacon drippings (or olive oil) until soft and transparent.
- Mix remaining drippings and flour in pan and cook until light brown.
- Add onion and hot broth, stirring until smooth.
- Whisk in can of water, tomatoes and bacon.
- Cook on low heat for 30-45 minutes.
- I think this would probably be good with turkey bacon for a lighter version and olive oil in place of the drippings.
