I made this last night but cut it in half for just the two of us. I'd never had anything called a "Bog". This is great. So different from other things I've cooked. My hubby took two bites and fell in love. He got up this morning and told me he had a dream. He wants the leftovers this morning with two eggs, over easy, on top. Haaa haaa. If that's not love, I don't know what is!

OK - I just warmed up leftovers and put over easy eggs on top for hubbies breakfast (well, brunch). It's a big hit! I'd give you another 5 if I could.

This sounds wonderful - and I mean really wonderful... I was searching for a shrimp dish to do something a little different - and I saw the bacon I had... you are giving me ideas but good! I have never tried a 'bog' let alone walking through one (which you can't) so if I don't try this tonight - I will definitely try it the next time I do shrimp!
thanks again chefmeow for something new and oh so different!
