Easy Baked Beans

These are very easy to make but it does take about 45 minutes to an hour to bake the beans, once you have combined.  I used a can of small baby lima beans, which are very inexpensive, but cans of pork and beans will work, as well.  I am not a fan of canned pork and beans and prefer the texture of the baby lima beans.
This recipe makes 4 servings so multiply the amounts of ingredients as needed. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

1 can of Small Baby Lima Beans, including liquid
1/2 cup of Onion, finely chopped
1/4 pound of Bacon, cut into small bits
1/4 cup each of Barbecue Sauce, Prepared Mustard and Molasses
1 teaspoon each of Salt and Pepper

In a deep skillet, cook bacon and onion over medium-low heat, until the bacon gets crispy and the onion starts to caramelize.  Add the rest of the ingredients and stir to combine.  Bake uncovered in the oven 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the sauce thickens.  If you are making a larger batch of beans, it may take longer to bake, so keep that in mind when planning your meal.  Once the sauce has thickened.  Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Enjoy!
