Baconless Baked Beans

Recipe #300824 | 1½ hours | 20 min prep | SERVES 9 -12 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Chef*Lee

I hate to fry bacon because I usually only need a few strips for a recipe then I'm left with all that bacon. So I usually don't use it. I created these baked beans without bacon, using french-fried onions. They give it that good smoky flavor without the hassle of cooking the bacon. Hope you like them!
