Ingredients

• 1 onion, chopped
• 6 slices bacon
• salt and pepper to taste
• ½ cup chopped celery
• 2 carrots, chopped
• 1 large head fresh broccoli, chopped
• 4 potatoes - peeled and sliced thin
• 1 pound kielbasa sausage, cut into 1 inch pieces

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

In a large, heavy skillet over medium high heat, fry the bacon until crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon and leave the fat in the skillet.

Step 2

Then place the potatoes, broccoli, celery, carrots, and onion in the bacon fat, reduce heat to medium and saute for 5 minutes. Place the kielbasa over all, to allow the juices to trickle down over the vegetables.

Step 3

Saute for 5 to 10 more minutes, or to desired tenderness on the vegetables. Season with salt and pepper to taste, crumble the reserved bacon and return it to the skillet, and stir to combine.
