Labor Day Recipe : Cherry Baked Beans

Seems like every family get together we have baked beans are served. There are many ways to prepare this side dish. My mom uses a combination of catsup, mustard, brown sugar and spices. I don't think that I ever fix mine the same way but always use brown sugar and barbq sauce. This recipe from Taste of Home was the most unusual way I have found to fix baked beans and wanted to share them with you.



1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)


2 cans (15 ounces each) pork and beans

2 cups frozen pitted tart cherries, thawed

1 can (16 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained

1 cup ketchup

1/2 cup water

1 envelope onion soup mix

2 tablespoons prepared mustard

2 teaspoons cider vinegar

In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. In a large bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; stir in beef.

Transfer to an ungreased 2-1/2 qt. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 40-45 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Yield: 12 servings.
