I got this as a weigh****chers side dish.  It is really good though I left out the onion and put LF Cheddar in it.  Used Bacon bits insead of cooking bacon.

AWWW, that sounds AWESOME! Thanks.

I just had something like that from the salad bar at Ruby Tuesday last night. I went back for seconds...it was so good. They must have put sugar in there not that I see the recipe cause it had something a little sweet. Oh welll, hopfully they burned off fast since that was all the sugar I had.

I will definately try this!!

I have also made this pre-op, but with the addition of halved seedless red grapes.  Very good.  A very good addition depending on how many carbs you allow yourself.

Thanks for reminding me of this recipe.
