Betsy's Fancy Baked Beans

My sister-in-law gave me a baked bean recipe years ago

called Block Party Beans.  It's yummy and I hadn't made it

in years, so I pulled the recipe out this week.

I didn't have all the ingredients and wanted to add a few

of my own ideas to it, and this is what it turned out to be.

We'll definitely be having these again....

I hope you try them and enjoy them as much as we did!

Betsy's Fancy Baked Beans

1/2 package thick sliced bacon

1 lb ground beef, extra lean

1 cup chopped onion

1/2 cup chopped celery

1 15oz can tomoto sauce

1/2 c ketchup

2 Tablespoons yellow mustard

1/2 c brown sugar

A few dashes of liquid smoke

1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon Worchestershire sauce

2 16 oz cans Bush's baked beans (original)

1 16 oz can great northern beans

1 16 oz can navy beans

1 16 oz can black beans

1 16 oz can butter beans

(**drain any beans that are watery**)

In large pot brown the beef and bacon.

Add the onions and celery and cook until tender.

Add the remaining ingredients and stir well.

I'm sure the types of beans can be substituted

to suit your likes...I just wanted a variety in there.

Bake 1 hour at 350 degrees.

Enjoy.
