If you love bacon lettuce and tomato sandwiches, well then, you'll absolutely love Bacon Lettuce Tomato Soup! Not only is it good for you, but it brings a smile to everyone's face when they try it. Kids love it, Grampas love it. And so will you.
What you'll need:
- 1/4 lb. of bacon
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 10 oz. can stewed tomatoes, chopped
- 12 oz. can vegetable juice
- 1 cup beef stock
- 1 tsp. sugar
- 1 tsp. oregano
- Shredded lettuce (I like using romaine)
What to do:
-
Brown the bacon and remove from the pan, cool and crumble.
-
Sauté the onion and celery in 2 Tbsp. of bacon fat until tender.
-
Mix in the tomatoes, vegetable juice, beef stock, sugar, oregano and the crumbled bacon. At this point, your mixture should be the consistency of a white sauce. If it is too thin, just add a Tbsp. or two of flour mixed with water until you get the right consistency.
-
Simmer for 30 minutes.
-
Serve up into your favorite soup bowls and sprinkle with the shredded lettuce.
