Beefy Beans

1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 red or green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 (16 ounce) can baked beans
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup tomato ketchup
1/4 cup Heinz 57® sauce
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

In large skillet, cook the ground beef, onion and bell pepper over medium heat for 6 to 8 minutes or until beef is no longer pink.  Break up the beef into 1-inch crumbles and pour off the drippings.

Now season the beef mix with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Stir in the beans, ketchup, Heinz Sauce, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce.  Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Makes 4 servings.
