scubaLQ Recipe ⋆ 4-Bean Baked Beans

Four different kinds of beans baked with molasses. I have substituted different kinds of beans and enjoyed all of the results. Use whatever kind of beans you like! I have also used Canadian bacon instead of regular bacon.

Ingredients

• 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained
• 1 (15 ounce) can butter beans, drained
• 1 (15 ounce) can lima beans, drained

2. Place kidney beans, butter beans, lima beans, and pork and beans in a 2-quart casserole dish.
3. Heat a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir bacon, onion, and garlic until bacon is browned, about 10 minutes. Pour off excess fat.
