3tbsp butter
3tbsp bacon grease
6 strips bacon, cooked and diced
2 cans corn (15oz each)
1 onion, diced
4 stalks celery, diced
1 green pepper, diced
lots of fresh thyme leaves
1 head garlic, minced
2 cans diced tomato
2 bunches green onions, finely sliced
salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper to taste
—–
Place everything except the tomato, green onion, and seasonings into a pot.
Cook on medium heat approximately 30 minutes to soften vegetables and boil away most of the water.
Add the tomato and green onion, fold into the mix.
Season to taste.
The above made 7-1/2 servings with about 1/3 of it still leftover.
Fresh corn and tomato would be good if in season, the organic canned stuff still worked well though.
