Good Eats for Pennies

Here is a quick, easy and versatile dinner that my family enjoys. I don't really have a name for it except "beans and hamburger." Don't let the simplicity fool you.

When I say versatile I mean versatile!

Ground beef (any amount will do)
Can(s) of beans *Bushe's beans, pork and beans* experiment with the flavors!
Seasonings (bbq sauce, brown sugar, Lawry's seasoning, cinnamon, vanilla flavoring just a few)

Ground the beef and drain
Add the beans
Add seasoning of your choice
Simmer for 10 minutes

Add rice as a side

The thing about the seasoning is simple, you can do sweet (cinnamon and vanilla with brown sugar) or you can do something spicy (bbq sauce with Lawry's Seasoning with a hint of brown sugar) or something with just  Lawry's Seasoning!

Trust me, its filling, nutritious and works in a pinch. Give it a try. And don't forget, its CHEAP ;p

  1. It's called chuckwagon beans and I learned to make it back in my college days. A college friend taught me and I have continued to make it.
