Spicy Bacon Baked Beans
The following recipe and photography was provided by Christina Musgrave of Tasting with Tina.
You’re going to love these one-pot Spicy Bacon Baked Beans! They come together quickly and taste delicious alongside grilled hamburgers and hotdogs at a cookout or tailgate.

With Heinen’s crisp CARE Certified bacon, spicy jalapeños, and spices, these beans are anything but average! Each bite is packed with delicious sweet and spicy flavors.
I recommend using an oven-safe skillet or braiser for easy transfer from the stove to the oven.
