Not so sure about mixing bacon with rice, but gave it a shot. It was okay, I’ll say.
This was AWESOME! Love the smoky flavor from the bacon. Will definitely make again!
Too greasy for me. I think there’s a better recipe without bacon. Just saying.
I actually love the bacon in it! It adds flavor! You could always leave it out if you don’t like it though.
