Calico Beans

I love baked beans and was looking for a new way to prepare them. This is a nice change with the additions of multiple types of beans - baked, kidney, cannelini and butter. The bacon gives it a nice smokiness too. This is now a staple dish that I have to bring any time we have a cookout.

Calico Beans:
adapted from allrecipes.com

1 15 oz can kidney beans - dark red - drained

1 15 oz can cannelini beans - drained

1 15 oz can baby butter beans - drained

1 16 oz can baked beans - I used Bush's Country Style

1/2 cup ketchup

2 tsp. white vinegar

1 Tbsp. dry mustard

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

4 oz bacon, fried crisp and chopped

onion powder to taste

Combine all the ingredients in a crockpot and cook on low all day, 8-10 hours.
