Ingredients

• 4 strips bacon
• 3/4 cup chopped onion
• 3/4 cup chopped celery
• 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon chili powder

• 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
• 1/2 cup Mexican cheese blend, shredded

Instructions

1. Place bacon in a large saucepan and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels; crumble.
2. Saute onion and celery in reserved bacon drippings over medium-high heat until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in beans, crumbled bacon, oregano, chili powder, and garlic powder. When beans have softened, add Swanson(R) Chicken Broth and salsa. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer covered until flavors have blended, about 15 minutes.
