Delicious cheesey goodness! What a nice comforting supper. Your bell pepper sure looked nicely red and perfectly ripe, I'm sure it added a whole level of taste to the dish. Never added bacon in ny version and your thick cut slices sure looked good- I'll have to try it that way next time I make it. Love that meal!  ------------- |
