These were very good. I'll definitely be making them again. -
BAM! These were really good! My bacon didn't cook up much grease, but that was ok I uses the non-stick skillet. These are much better that the normal pan fried potatoes with onions. I'll fix this one again, and again, and again... Thanks for sharing!

Living in the south we are very lucky to have an abundance of fresh seafood and other ingredients at our disposal when trying new recipes. My husband and I both love to cook and have learned a lot about cooking from our native Louisianian, Paul Prudhomme (we learned to be very careful with his recipes as they are very spicy - even for us), native New Orleanian, Frank Davis and transplanted Emeril Lagasse. It would be very difficult to pick an all time favorite cookbook since I have approximately 200. I enjoy collecting local cookbooks as well as others from different areas. This picture is obviously when DH and I got married. I cooked all the food and even made my wedding cake.
