I’m a meat eater and trust me for some reason sometimes when I’m lazy and don’t want to deal with the mess I Dont even cook up the pound of bacon and add it. This is also the only thing a cook that has Longhorn cheese in it. A friends wife used to make a pan of this for the guys when I worked in the mill and shared the recipe with me. Like she said on the recipe you can add or delete items to your taste.
