I use bacon lardons in my cooking most of the time as I like the size of the chunks, and I find if you fry them in a dry pan until crispy and delicious they are heavenly. You can replace it with something else such as tomatoes, or even some mushrooms if you fancied – but again, these are optional. I will start by saying that bacon is optional in this recipe… if you are vegetarian, or just don’t like or want to use the bacon, you can 100% leave it out. However, the per-grated parmesan is absolutely fine to use. I also find that cheese is in pieces that are too large compared to grating it yourself. I tend to grate the cheddar cheese myself as I find if you buy pre-grated cheese, it has something on the cheese to make it stop sticking and I am not a fan. I use a mix of mainly mature cheddar cheese, and parmesan in the homemade cheese sauce, and then I use extra mature cheddar cheese on the top. I do prefer mature cheeses, but that is my choice. When it comes to something cheese themed, I want to add as much as possible. You can serve it lightly with salad, or make it a hearty dish with some roasties and veg, it’s completely up to you, just like with this one. I have a few savoury bakes that are more lunch like, but this can also be a lunch as well if you fancy. Last time I posted my chicken, leek & bacon pie and oh wow… you all LOVED it!
