Forget the bacon use Smart Balance or spray olive oil. This eliminates the extra saturated fat and still has great flavor. I've tried all 3 versions. Jim Chicago Il
This recipe was fabulous! I omitted the bacon because I didn't have any and thought it would be just fine without. So I used a dash of olive oil and a bit of black truffle olive oil to sub for the grease from the bacon. We served over angel hair so I didn't let all the liquid evaporate. Super easy and YUMMM!

Haven't tried it yet. Sounds a good idea except that I have read that health food addicts should avoid processed meats. It would be helpful to have an alternative meat for those who don't eat bacon (Jewish Muslim and vegetarian family or friends and guests). I would try it with chicken. Of course you then lose the flavour. You can buy vegetarian bacon-flavour bits which we found a great substitute for bacon. The internet is worldwide and I'm in London in the UK. It would be helpful to have other under location. I've put Maryland because that's where I used to live and in case your system won't let me comment unless I chose a US state and city. I tried to make my comment without adding a rating and it reloaded and made me type again which was a nuisance so I'm copying this before clicking on submit. Angella Rockville MD

I've used this before only adding red yellow peppers and fresh green and red onions. This makes a great lite dinner served over pasta- not much more calories or fat maybe a tsp. of Zesty Italian dressing- wonderful dish! Anonymous Summerville SC
I'm vegan so I just eliminated the bacon altogether. It was savory and delicious on whole wheat pasta - the bacon seems like a superfluous addition to the recipe. Cindie May Lou Boston MA
I love rosemary & mushrooms & can't wait to try this recipe out. I'm a meatless household & mushrooms tend to add the 'savory' taste element without the need for additives like the bacon. For the gal looking for substitutes for the wine try balsamic vinegar. It will add some taste of its own and a bit of acidity. I like it better than wine in dishes. Edie Cheshire OR
No recipe is etched in stone so try your own variations. The addition of Rosemary to the mushrooms was a wonderful new flavor. I'm reading now how rosemary has wonderful anti-oxident properties as well. I substituted turkey bacon to reduce the fat and keep the lovely bacon flavor. I also like to saute veggies in Macadamia nut oil when I can find it for a more nutty flavor. Low-carb Chef Ashland OH
