½ cup chopped onions

½ cup diced celery

1 small can of tomato sauce

½ cup water

2 Tbsp. vineger

1 tsp. powdered mustard

1 tsp. crushed thyme

2 Tbsp. brown sugar

ketchup and molasses to taste

1 large can (31 oz.) Van Camp Pork and Beans

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Brown ground beef. Drain. Set aside.

Sauté onions & celery in a little butter until onions are clear.

Combine beef, onions and the rest of the ingredients in a large pot.

If your pot isn’t oven safe then pour beans into a baking dish and cover.

Bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees.

We eat as a side dish with our holiday ham.
