I tried this recipe this a.m. and used egg beaters and turkey sausage (turkey bacon did not taste right last weekend) and it was a hit with the family and they had no idea it was diabetic.

Since we are campers I will definatly try this. For less fat use Turkey bacon and reduced fat cheese. It will be just as good.
