Grandma Belloni’s Butter Beans in Tomato Sauce

Posted on

15oz tomato sauce
2 cans butter beans, drained and washed
1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup onion
ground black pepper to taste

Combine onion and ground beef and cook until beef is browned. Drain grease. Combine the rest of the ingredients and place in a 350F oven for at least 20 minutes, however longer is better.

  1. I used a scant 1/2 cup of brown sugar, i felt it may be on the edge of too sweet, but April liked it as is. I also used two 8oz cans of tomato sauce because they were on sale and cheaper than one 15oz can. May have been slightly too saucy, but if it were baked longer it might have thickened up. Over all a good first try.
