    Good
    This is a nice dish. Bacon adds interest, and the onion adds flavor. I eliminated the butter and used a T. of bacon grease because I'm lazy. - 12/10/10

    I'll use this but lighten it up. Less bacon, lots less fats (1 tsp butter and 1 tsp olive oil. I've been searching for a recipe I used last year and this is close. Thanks. - 11/20/09
