This was really quick and pretty healthy. We enjoyed them over top of some baked potatoes and it made for a really tasty and easy meal. I was happy to see the turkey bacon in the recipe and it worked well. The only reason I am giving four instead of five stars is that my partner commented that they were ever so slightly too sweet but I thought they were fine. That was probably down to the brand of BBQ sauce rather than the recipe. Made for PAC Spring 2008.
