Tomato And Bacon Rice Recipe


Tomato And Bacon Rice Recipe
We made this for dinner last night and proclaimed it a new "regular". Greg said he wants to add smoked sausage to it or chicken to make it a "one pot" dinner.

Will make this for a potluck dinner this weekend. thanks for this wonderful recipe!!!


This sounds really good. We love rice and can't get enough of it in my house. This one is a must try and one I know will be a mainstay. I also like the idea of adding the smoked sausage. Thanks for the post.


Looks great-Plan on trying this week-end.--Thanks


You go Greg! Sausage! and bacon! This is for this weekend. Big batch, big tailgating party. MMMMM, smoked ham, smoked salmon, smoked trout, kielbasa, summer sausage....
Thanks Mel and Greg!


This sounds perfect!


The first time we tried this I used the beef broth, and tonight I tried it with chicken broth and we liked it all over again. Even my 2-year-old ate it!

I used chicken broth instead of beef broth for a milder taste.
