Spanish Rice

All the flavors mix together and just work.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 lb. of bacon, cut into bite size pieces.
• 1 red pepper
• 1 green pepper
• 1 large onion
• 8 cloves of garlic, optional
• 1 (a5 oz.) can stewed tomatoes
• 2 cups of brown rice (white works too)

Directions:

Cook bacon until done. Remove and drain. Saute onion, peppers, and garlic. When browned, add the rice. Brown for a couple minutes, then add bacon, can of tomatoes, and three cans of water for rice, (sometimes I subsitute V8 for 1 can of water). Let the rice simmer until cooked.

Enjoy!
