Only 5 stars after a few changes...otherwise, still a 4! I accidentally forgot to add the lemon juice...even after I squeezed it! Oops! ;- I used Pepper Jack cheese, added several dashes of Worcestershire sauce, put the bacon under the patty (as others suggested to crisp it up (DO NOT like soggy bacon and it worked beautifully! I wasn't certain if I would like/love/hate the bell pepper in this, but I absolutely think it would not have tasted as good without it. Don't get me wrong, I love bell pepper, but this is sort of meatloaf-ish and I've never added bell pepper to my meatloaf. One more thing, I did have to cook this for about an hour and the carrots were far beyond "al dente" and the potatoes much less so, but still had a little crunch although sliced VERY thinly. I am definitely going to make this again...this weekend actually, but I will slice the potatoes even thinner as well as slicing instead of quartering the carrots. And not sure I missed the lemon...

It has been a while since I made them, but they are great. I make them for other people and they look at me funny when I tell them what I am going to cook. Then when there eating them they like em and want the recipe.
