For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and add 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika to the brown sugar mixture for a smoky flavor. If you prefer a softer bacon, skip the microwaving step and bake the dish for an additional 10-15 minutes. To add a touch of heat, include a pinch of red pepper flakes to the brown sugar mixture.
