Ranch beans


Great for breakfast with eggs or for cheap dinner

Not good for vegetarians as the Bacon is critical

1 14 oz. can kidney beans
Onion, chopped
1-2 strips thick bacon, chopped (buy at deli counter or buy a pound and wrap and freeze the rest)
Water
Pepper

Chop bacon into ¼" strips

Heat pan over medium and saute bacon until well browned. Leave fat in pan. Add onions, stir to coat and cover. Cook for 3-5 minutes until softened and starting to brown. Add undrained beans and 1 can water. Add LOTS of black pepper.

Bring to boil and then simmer for 15 minutes until beans are soft.


1-2 servings

Can serve over toast to stretch it further.
OK to use hot sauce.
NOT good left over

1-2 servings
