for a hearty dinner! 
4th of July Bean Casserole
from ilovemy5kids
1/2 lb sliced bacon, diced
1/2 lb ground beef (I use turkey)
1 cup chopped onion
1 (28 oz) pork and beans
1 (17 oz) lima beans
1 (15 oz) kidney beans (rinsed and drained)
1/2 cup BBQ sauce (Sometimes I use less)
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup sugar (I don’t use that much)
1/2 cup brown sugar (I like light)
2 Tbsp prepared mustard
2 Tbsp molasses
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp chili powder
Cook bacon, beef and onion in a skillet until meat is brown and onion is tender. Drain. I rinse it. Transfer to crock pot
The original recipe said to cover and bake in a 350 degrees for 45 minutes in a baking dish. Uncover and cook for 15 more minutes.
Totally a dish worth taking to a BBQ. Enjoy!

This looks delicious. My boyfriend hates lima beans but I bet he would eat this and not even complain! I’m definitely gonna have to try it!
I made a similar recipe every year for our July 4th BBQ, and it was also from my mom. She called hers “Calico Beans” and it always sounded so homespun and Little House on the Prairie-ish to me. Thanks for the reminder!
I am so putting this on my list for next month. Just did a two week bulk cooking and need to start planning the next.
