What a fast weeknight dinner this is! This flavor is good too!
The bacon really adds a nice flavor and cooking the onions and hamburger in the bacon fat adds that flavor to the rest of the dish.
If you like your celery a little softer, add it with the onions and hamburger at the beginning. It had a little crunch to it they way the recipe calls for it to be cooked. I liked the small bit of crunch – it added a little texture.
I served the dish over rice. My husband went back for seconds!
