2 tbsp. olive oil
1/4 c. bacon bits or 3 slices of bacon cooked and chopped
1/4 c. chopped onion
3 cloves of garlic crushed
2 (15 oz) can of tomatoes

Cooked rice (to serve over)

Sautee onions, garlic,and bacon with olive oil.  Add all other ingredients and simmer together for 15-30 mins.   Stir in vinegar and sugar.  Serve over cooked rice.

I like this with baked squash. 
Any kind of squash.  Cut into large chunks.  Spray 9x13 pan and add fill 1/4 inch of pan with water.  Place cut sides down.  Cover with tin foil and bake at 350* for 45-60 mins.  Or bake at 400* for 30-40 mins.
