day six - boston baked beans on rye bread

This was a very simple and quick recipe for homemade baked beans.... well not completely home made as I added tinned beans and tomatoes to cut down cooking time. But all in all,  they were MUCH nicer tasting than the pre-made baked beans you get in cans.



The recipe can be found here ... I halved the amount of beans and other things, but chucked in the whole tin of tomatoes because I wanted to use them all up. I recommend not to do that, the diced tomato flavour ended up overpowering the beans which are the main feature to this dish... (the recipe is for baked BEANS after all)

I also added a teaspoon of Dijon mustard and of Worcestershire sauce for some extra flavour. 

RATING:
SIMPLICITY - 5 stars
TASTE - 3/5 stars
To be fair I wasn't a good judge of taste today, I didn't feel like eating much and also added too much tomato into the recipe which made it more sour than it should have been 
Actually, I take that back... had some for leftovers for lunch today (27/06) and it was yummm.

Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy this recipe and try it out of yourselves - it's a very simple recipe and makes for a nice change to the tinned stuff you may be used to!

Also, my computer is still being a bitch... it annoys me to spend too much time on it! I think I'm going to head outside for a walk to get away from it....

  6. I hate using the canned tomatoes because it takes a lot of trial and error which leads to wasting money, so I usually puree or stew them instead :)
