I love bacon, so I loved this recipe. I served mine with white rice. We loved it! Thanks for a great dish!

my family prefers a more flavorful dish...so i added some of my own spices the second try and they loved it...if you add some seasoned salt or their favorite creole seasoning it does the trick!

I found this lacking a little "something." I added a little extra Wyler's chicken boullion from the shaker bottle to spice it up a little bit. Perhaps I didn't add enough salt to begin with. Although it wasn't a complete disaster, I don't think that I will be making it again. The thoughts of all that bacon grease going into my tummy gave my veins cholesterol attacks.
