To be fair I didn't add the tomatoes and bacon at the end and I suspect that this may be the missing spark that this recipe needed. Even without the bacon tomato it was still very good and I enjoed it along side a sausage/bean recipe. Next time I will add the ingredients I omitted this time - Thanks ellie 2 - I will make again
