Heloise's Bootleg Beans

These are simple, tasty, and go with just about anything. They can be cooked in the oven, on top of the stove, in a crockpot, or "nuked" in the microwave. You can dress them up with water chestnuts or crushed pineapple.

Heloise's Bootleg Beans

3 strips bacon, fried and diced
1 small chopped onion
1 can pork and beans in tomato sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 to 3 tablespoons ketchup

Fry the bacon until crisp, then cook the chopped onion in the bacon grease until it is brown. Pour off most of the grease and add the beans, brown sugar and ketchup. Stir well, cover and simmer slowly for a few minutes. You also can bake this dish in a 300-degree oven for about an hour, or simmer in a crockpot for an hour or two.
