SMOKEY TOMATO AND BACON SPREAD
I have made many variations of this over the years, only not with pasta sauce before. This recipe has evolved from a recipe I found on AR for tomato gravy. I have discovered that using the pasta sauce as the base instead of using tomato sauce and canned tomatoes makes this much less time consuming too.

Tips:
- Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful the spread will be. Avoid using tomatoes that are underripe or have blemishes.
- Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and makes them easier to blend. You can roast the tomatoes in the oven or on the stovetop.
- Use high-quality bacon: The better the bacon, the better the spread will be. Look for bacon that is thick-cut and has a good smoke flavor.
- Cook the bacon until it is crispy: Crispy bacon adds a nice texture to the spread. You can cook the bacon in a skillet or in the oven.
- Use a food processor or blender to blend the ingredients: This is the easiest way to get a smooth and creamy spread. You can also use a mortar and pestle, but this will take longer.
- Season the spread to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of vinegar for a bit of brightness.
Conclusion:
Bacon and tomato spread is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It is perfect for sandwiches, wraps, burgers, and crackers. It can also be used as a dip for vegetables or fruit. No matter how you choose to use it, bacon and tomato spread is sure to be a hit.
