In response to tamibaker........or anyone using baked beans. Always add a little cloves to the beans. I use Bush's beans, add a little brown sugar and cloves. You would be amazed what cloves does for the beans.

What a disappointment that there is not any nutritional information with your recipes. It kind of makes no sense for me since I am watching what I eat. You state that you are reworking old favorites with less calories but don't provide the critical information telling me fat, calories, sodium contet....

Not to be ugly but, if you are trying to watch what you eat maybe you should not be looking at recipes that requires frying as the cooking process. Regardless if they list the nutritional info or not..... Just saying.

A lot of time and ingredients for a ho-hum dish. Better to just open the can of baked beans and omit all the other unneccesary steps.
