Bumper Crop Tomato Salad

This recipe is from my friend, Shirley Nebel. She and her husband invited my husband and I to their home this summer and she served this with the meal. One of the best salads I have ever eaten!

Ingredients:

• 5 ripe med. tomatoes (1 inch pieces)
• 1 large green pepper
• 1/2 Vidalia onion
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 Tbsp. sugar
• 2 Tbsp. vinegar
• 1 Tbsp. salad oil
• 6 slices bacon, fried

Directions:

Chop tomatoes, green pepper and onion. Fry bacon crisp. Mix together water, sugar, vinegar and salad oil and pour over veggies. Chill 1-4 hours. Add bacon just before serving.
