Supreme Baked Beans

This recipe is a combination of recipes from a couple of family members. I just tweaked it to make it mine. It's especially good for people who aren't too fond of baked beans. It has the right combination of beans, meat and flavor to please even the pickiest eater.

INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup diced onions
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
1/2 lb ground beef or ground turkey
1 tablespoon seasoned salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 28oz can of baked beans
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tbs ketchup
1 heaping tablespoon mustard
about 4-6 slices of bacon

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Cook first 6 ingredients in large saucepan until ground beef or turkey is browned and there is no pink remaining. Turn stove off.

Drain and return to pan.

Stir baked beans into ground beef/turkey mixture.

Add brown sugar, ketchup, and mustard to saucepan and stir to make sure all ingredients are mixed well.

Pour baked bean/meat mixture into baking pan or baking dish.

Smooth baked beans out in pan and place bacon slices on top.

Place in oven, uncovered and bake until bacon on top is crisp and done, about 1 hour.

*If you don't want to put raw bacon on top, you can precook the bacon until almost done, then add them to the baked beans 1/2 way though cooking.*
