This dish is a definitely NOT for dieters, calorie counters of those who freak out about chloresterol! Great flavor, one pot meal that really satisfies. A favorite at my house!

Oh my!!! This is my new favorite dish! I made a pot of this tonight for dinner and it is to die for. The bacon grease really makes this dish.
I halved the recipe and still ended up with way more than I could ever eat so my neighbors will b...more
