"Company" Green Beans - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 slices bacon (thick slices)
1 small onion, peeled and chopped
1 (14 ounce) can green beans, drained
1 (14 ounce) can whole tomatoes (not the thick, rich kind of juice) or (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice (not the thick, rich kind of juice)

Preparation

Cut bacon slices cross-ways into 1/2 inch pieces.
Fry bacon in a sauce pan until just crisp.
Remove bacon from pan and let drain on paper towels.
Pour off all but a couple teaspoons of bacon fat.
Add onion to pan and cook just until translucent and soft.
If using whole tomatoes, cut them up using a sharp knife while they're still in the can.
Add tomatoes to the pan along with the drained can of green beans.
Add bacon and heat until all ingredients are thoroughly heated.
Serve in small bowls because it's kind of \"soupy\".
