For Variety
Bits of cooked ham, chipped beef, or any cooked meats may be used in place of the bacon in this recipe. Thin slices of sausages or chopped chicken livers are especially good. Fry the potatoes in bacon fat or other meat drippings when omitting the bacon.
Small cubes of cheese or flakes of smoked fish are other welcome additions with their own distinctive flavors.
