Even people who aren't wild about baked beans enjoy this dish - it puts a new twist on an old summertime favorite. I received the recipe from my brother-in-law and use it often for gatherings. If I have lots of time, I cook the beans on low in a slow cooker - easy and delicious!
Ingredients:
6 ounces sliced pepperoni
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
1 tablespoon butter
1 can (12 ounces) tomato paste
2 cans (4 ounces each) mushroom stems and pieces, undrained
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
4 cans (16 ounces each) pork and beans
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. In a Dutch oven, cook the pepperoni, green pepper and onion in butter until vegetables are tender. Stir in tomato paste, mushrooms, seasonings and beans; mix well. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Cover and bake at 350° for 50-60 minutes. Yield: 12-14 servings.
