Shelly's BBQ Baked Bean Casserole
4 slices Bacon, cut in half
1/2 a package of Ground Turkey
1/2 a Maui Sweet Onion, diced fine
1 Granny Smith Apple, diced fine
2 cloves Garlic, crushed
2 (15 oz.) cans Cannellini Beans, rinsed & drained
1/2 cup BBQ Sauce
a few twists of Black Pepper
Olive Oil for sauteing
Microwave bacon for 2 minutes till limp but not fully cooked. Set aside. Saute turkey till no pink is seen. Set aside. Saute onions till golden. Add apple saute till they start to give a bit. About 5 minutes. Add all remaining ingredients including the turkey (except bacon) mix to combine.
Pour into Pyrex casserole dish. Place bacon slices across top. Bake at 350 for 1 hour.I use the real deal BBQ sauce (they do make no/low sugar ones) I figure 1/2 cup spread out over an entire dish (a good 6 portions for non-ops) really just gives the beans the taste. I don't have issues with it but if you do there are some products out there. I use a combo of two BBQ sauces (a brown one and a redder one.)
Happy February! Tomorrow is Groundhog Day. Better be good news Phil or we're making a little trip to the taxidermy man. I need my sunny, blue skies.
I have a ton of blog giveaways planned this month. Some GREAT stuff. I'm so excited! Keep watching the blog for all the deets. February is going to be a great month. Well I should say most of February will be great...
Those of you that read the blog on a regular basis know I'm single. There is a certain holiday coming up that every single person hates. Some people call it Valentine's Day. I call it Singles Awareness Day. Need a place to commiserate (or celebrate) your single status. Join our Singles Awareness Day Facebook page. On the 14th we'll hang and stick pins in things ;)
Speaking of Facebook... The World According to Eggface also has a Facebook page. Shout out to the 1000+ fans. I'm blessed and blown away to have so many people traveling on this journey with me.
