1 large onion, cubed

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until browned and crisp. Remove the bacon to paper toweling to drain. When cool, coarsely crumble the bacon.

Add the potatoes and onion to the bacon drippings in the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are soft.

Add the potatoes, bacon, and tomatoes to the soaked peas. Season to taste then let cook on low heat for 4-5 hours.

  1. cmddallas REVIEW:

    This is a great recipe. It is pretty easy to cook. I would follow the directions on the bag of dried beans for the first step. Taste before adding pepper the Rotel has great flavor. It makes way way more than 4 servings we doubled the recipe and have not served half the pot served 20 ladle so far today! Craig

  2. Insomniac REVIEW:

    This recipe is awesome!! I added a can of cut green beans, celery, and some elbow macaroni to make a really chunky soup. I also did this in a sauce pan instead of a crock. I decided to just par boil the potatoes instead and just add a bit of the bacon drippings to the soup. It turned out sooooooo good. Not like anything I've ever had but I would HIGHLY recommend experimenting with this!

    This is very, very good! I have made this recipe (from a newspaper cliping recipe} for many years! I am making it again this year for New Years Day. Try it, you'll like it!
