I knew this was a guaranteed failure for my kids before I even made it, but I figured I'd like it. And I did. Good thing I doubled some of the elements (new amounts reflected below) because it fed me the next day, too.
I made it ahead of time for dinner and combined everything except the bacon...saved that until the end. I also had some extra tomatoes hanging around, so those went in. I'd consider goat cheese or feta just to try it, but it's perfectly fine without it. I served it room temperature the first time and scarfed it cold from the fridge the second, so temperature didn't matter (or my standards are very low. See: I eat 90% of my meals standing up right now).
