5 Decker Dinner - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 to 5 slices bacon
1 lb. hamburger
1 medium onion
1/2 green pepper (optional)
3 to 5 carrots
3 to 5 potatoes

Preparation

Using 10-inch skillet (with lid), layer ingredients.
Cover skillet bottom with bacon, pat uncooked hamburger over bacon, add sliced onion layer, then green pepper slices (if family likes them), a little salt and pepper, thinly sliced carrots, top with thicker sliced potatoes (this ensures even cooking).
Add about 1 cup water, salt and pepper.
Cover and cook on low about 45 to 60 minutes, basting with self-juice 2 to 3 times.
Bacon does not brown for eating, just adds flavor, also gives meat a pinkish look. Amounts may be adjusted according to personal tastes and skillet size.
