Ingredients

1 lb bacon
3 lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef
1 medium white onion, finely chopped
3 tablespoons dried oregano leaves
1/4 cup Progresso™ Italian style bread crumbs

Instructions

Heat oven to 350 °F. In ungreased baking pan with sides, arrange 1 lb bacon slices. Bake 10 to 15 minutes. Reserve bacon drippings in small bowl.
Meanwhile, in large bowl, place 3 lb lean ground beef, chopped 1 medium white onion, 3 tablespoons dried oregano leaves and 1/4 cup Progresso™ Italian style bread crumbs.
