Macaroni with Tomato and Bacon
Macaroni alone is somewhat tasteless, so that something is usually added to give this food a more appetizing flavor. In the recipe here given, tomatoes and bacon are used for this purpose. Besides improving the flavor, the bacon supplies the macaroni with fat, a food substance in which it is low.
Sufficient to serve six.
Ingredients
- 1 cupful macaroni
- 2 quarts boiling water
- 2 teaspoonfuls salt
- 2 cupfuls canned tomatoes
- 8 thin slices bacon
Instructions
Break the macaroni into inch lengths and cook it in the boiling salted water until it is tender. Place a layer of the cooked macaroni on the bottom of a baking dish; over this layer put 1 cupful of the tomatoes, and on top of them spread four slices of bacon. Then add another layer of the macaroni, the other cupful of tomatoes, and a third layer of macaroni. On top of this layer, place the remaining four slices of bacon, and then bake the food for one half hour in a slow oven. Serve hot.
