Bacon-Cheese Pull Aparts

Manami's Note:

11/2005 Each bite is filled with breakfast flavors! You can taste the bacon, cheese, mushroom and green-onion flavors. Originally, this was a Pillsbury Bake-Off 41 (Hollywood,2004) recipe submitted by: Terri Barton of Salt Lake, Utah. It has been noted by one reviewer - that this dish should be used as a side to breakfast or brunch. Update: 07/21/2008. . . . . . . made this again for supper as I like to serve a light meal - we added more fresh mushrooms, we added more green onions, some pimentos and of course more eggs & bacon. :)

I made this today, followed the recipe (and comments made by Manami) and it was absolutely fantastic!!! Worth more than 5 stars, that's for sure! I did add an extra egg, a bit more milk, fresh mushrooms, and a 'bit' more bacon. I will definitely make this again, many times I'm sure!! P.S. thanks to the zaar helpers. I lost this recipe, but was determined to make it. One write-in describing it, and within 3 minutes, I had the recipe!!!! I'm so glad!!!!!!! Thanks for posting Manami!!!!!!!!

Easy and very tasty! I did omit the mushrooms and onions to suit one DS, but we still really enjoyed this recipe. Thanks for posting; I am sure we'll make again.
