Full of Beans

Today was definitely less eventful, which was nice for a change! Over a year ago, we went to a church potluck and someone brought these baked beans and Jeremy loved them! Today, I was searching recipes and I stumbled across the recipe and decided to make them for dinner. I didn't love them- I think I like them the regular way with ketchup, mustard, and brown sugar. Jeremy was still a BIG fan! I halved the recipe and we still have a lot of beans leftover, especially since I didn't eat too many.

Dinner tonight- hamburgers (leftover), guacamole and tortilla chips, and baked beans.
