539. BACON GRAVY

serves 4


1/2 lb bacon
6 oz evaporated milk
1 cup flour
salt and pepper
2 cups of water

Cook bacon in large skillet on medium heat. Set aside. In a large bowl combine evaporated milk and approximately 2 cups of water. Add 1 cup of flour to the bacon grease in skillet and stir (it may look a little lumpy, if not, add more flour). Slowly pour in milk and water mixture from the bowl, stirring constantly. If it is too thick, add more water. Salt and pepper to taste. Cook until hot and bubbly. You can crumble the bacon into the gravy or have it on the side.
