Season 2, Episode 19: Small Batch Easy Fast Savory Baked Beans, Half Meatless, Half Bacon, plus Vegetarian stuffing. Easy side dishes are important because it's often the case that the entree takes more time and effort. This is especially true for the Thanksgiving meal so easy side dishes are a wonderful thing! These recipes work for either a vegetarian or a meat eater as side dishes.

Small Batch Easy Fast Savory Baked Beans, Half Meatless, Half Meat

Ingredients

1 lb 12 oz. vegetarian Baked Beans
1/4 c. ketchup
1/2 c. wet yellow mustard
1 Tbsp. packed brown sugar
4-6 slices of thick sliced bacon

Instructions

1. Cook bacon in the oven at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
2. Stir together beans, ketchup, mustard, and brown sugar.
3. Heat bean mixture on the stove top for about 20 minutes until it's simmering and popping (but don't let it burn on the bottom, so stir occasionally and watch).
4. Remove the portions of beans you'd like to have be meatless. Add bacon to the portion you want to have meat by crumbling the bacon over the beans.
5. Serve hot.
