1 lb minute rice, cooked
1/2 lb bacon
1 small or medium bell pepper, chopped
1 small or medium onion, vidalia or yellow, chopped
1 15oz can tomato sauce
salt and pepper to taste

Chop bacon into small 1/2 inch bits and sauté over medium high heat. Stir and sauté in a large skillet until it just starts to turn crisp. Pour off most grease. Add bell pepper and onion and sauté until onion is translucent.

Add cooked rice to skillet and blend with bacon mixture. Stir in tomato sauce. Simmer on low heat for 10 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.

Serves 4.

Note: my family makes irish spaghetti with just about the same recipe, replacing spaghetti for the rice. Enjoy.
