Rebecca's Baked Beans

This is another recipe from my friend Rebecca S. You know, the one that whenever she had us over for dinner my hubby told me to get the recipe. These beans are amazing!! And so simple!

Rebecca's Baked Beans

4-5 Slices of Bacon

1 Onion – Finely Chopped

2 Green Peppers – Chopped

2 Cans Pork and Beans

½ teaspoon dry mustard

½ Cup Ketchup

1/3 Cup Brown Sugar

1 tablespoon prepared Mustard

Cut raw bacon into small pieces and cook in a frying pan. Remove from pan and set aside. Cook onion and green pepper in bacon grease until tender (about 5 min). Drain. In a casserole dish combine bacon, onion, pepper and all remaining ingredients. Bake at 350° for 1 hour, or until

desired consistency is reached.

*The oven part is mostly to thicken the beans, so you can microwave the mixture for several minutes, until it’s hot, before putting it in the oven – it saves a little time.

Garlic Bread Seasoning

This is a really tasty seasoning, and so simple. I love that you can make a bunch of the seasoning, and then store it until you are ready to use it. We made a little variation of it by adding some extra toppings. The bread at the back has mozzarella over the seasoned butter, and the bread at the front has a three cheese blend over the seasoning. They were all really yummy!

Garlic Bread Seasoning

Recipe from OurBestBites.com

1/2 c. powdered Parmesan cheese

2 tsp. Kosher salt

2 Tbsp. garlic powder

2 tsp. oregano

2 tsp. basil

2 tsp. marjoram

2 tsp. parsley

Combine ingredients in a jar (preferably one with a sprinkle top) and shake. Sprinkle on top of bread sticks or combine 1 1/2 Tbsp. seasoning with 1/2 c. of softened real butter and spread on a loaf of French bread (cut in 1/2 lengthwise). Wrap in foil and bake at 375 until butter's melted. If you want, you could also pop it open-faced under the broiler for a few minutes so it gets brownish and crispy.
