I'm on a low-carb diet, so I used cauliflower rice instead of white rice.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the bacon. It was still delicious!

I didn't have any pearl onions, so I used shallots instead. They worked just as well.

I'm allergic to butter, so I used olive oil instead. It turned out just as good!
