In 12-inch nonstick skillet, cook bacon over medium heat 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crisp. Remove bacon with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Drain bacon drippings from skillet.
In same skillet, cook sausage over medium-high heat 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally and breaking up sausage with spoon, until no longer pink. Remove sausage with slotted spoon; drain well on paper towels.
