Meet the Cook: My mother-in-law gave me this recipe. It's her very favorite breakfast. We - my husband, our two sons (15 and 12) and I - also enjoy it for a light supper. Especially on a cold day, it's great with warm peach cobbler or bread pudding. -Laurie Fisher, Greeley, Colorado Ingredients:
1/2 pound sliced bacon, diced |
1 small onion, chopped |
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
pinch pepper |
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained |
3 cups tomato juice |
6 to 8 hot biscuits, split |
Directions:
1. In a skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain; discard all but 2 tablespoons drippings. Cook onion in drippings until tender. Stir in flour, salt and pepper; cook and stir over low heat until mixture is golden brown. Gradually add tomatoes and tomato juice; stir well. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally. Stir in bacon. Serve over biscuits. Yield: 6-8 servings. |
