1/2 cup fresh sliced mushrooms |
1 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes or 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained |
1/4 teaspoon salt (*see note below) |
Directions:
1. Leave green beans whole or cut into 1-inch pieces.
2. In a large saucepan cook the beans in a small amount of boiling salted water about 10 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain.
3. Meanwhile, in a 10-inch skillet cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally.
4. Remove bacon, reserving drippings in skillet.
5. Drain bacon on paper towels; set aside.
6. Cook and stir onion and mushrooms in reserved drippings over medium heat until tender.
