Oh Tink, yum! I followed this recipe nearly to a T - only leaving out the black olives, blech. The sea salt is a nice addition instead of regular table salt. LOVE the bacon addition. It's a nice blend of ingredients and flavors. I will be making this often this summer. Made and Reviewed for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup tag - Thanks! :)

Hi! I am happily married with two children, 26 and 12. For nearly 10 years when this site was Recipezaar and then Food.com I hosted several different forums. I enjoyed making, creating, reviewing, and photographing recipes, but what I miss the most are the friendships I made here. I was Food Editor for the Mill Creek View Newspaper in Mill Creek, WA. for about 4 years during that time. Currently I am the office manager at a small mental health clinic. I'm not on this site much anymore, but I do continue to appreciate and respond to all reviews posted to my recipes.
