Doctored Baked Beans

There’s nothing wrong with a can of baked beans. Except I find them to be rather boring.  So, I took a recipe from Amy’s Cooking Adventures and bam! Great doctored baked beans from a can! This little bowl of happiness is much like the classic baked beans you might find at a picnic. And that’s ok. There’s nothing boring about it. It’s easy and great for a get-together.

Doctored Baked Beans

I always put jalapeno in my doctored baked beans. That might not be the best idea for your household. Substitute green bell pepper or even poblano if you want great flavor without the heat.

Easy Baked Beans and Smoked Sausage

We had one of those odd cool days the other day. Not too cool, but enough to put me in nesting mode. And that means stick-to-your-ribs food for dinner. So I threw together something super simple – easy baked beans and smoked sausage with a little corn bread on the side. I wasn’t going for fru-fru fancy stuff. I just wanted something to fill me up and warm me to the bone. This was it.
