Excellent! I used canadian bacon, finely diced; olive oil instead of the bacon grease and balsamic vinegar. Just because I love garlic, I also put in a clove of finely minced garlic and grape tomatoes, halved. Thanks for a wonderful veggie dish.

this is a wonderful dish! i used white wine vinegar and some yellow and red cherry tomatoes which made this so colorful! the vinegar and sugar make a lovely sweet and tangy sauce and the bacon adds some crunch. very enjoyable.
