I was looking for a special tomato sauce for my homemade manicottis. I had some leftover uncooked bacon from the weekend (regular pork bacon but will try the turkey bacon next time) and it gave the perfect lift to my spinach and cheese manicotti. After the first bite, my DH said "the bacon sauce is perfect!" I doubled it and used crushed tomatoes instead of the diced, but can't image that it would change it much.
