Franks & Beans.

Some folks always use the same recipe, some like to change it up every time. Some recipes are simple and ready in minutes, some are complex and take days to get just right. I like to change it up everytime...and today I was looking for something quick and simple.
My family has been hit by some nasty cold bug that's going around, so Z and I were looking for some comfort food while his mommy tried to take a nap. We decided on some simple wieners and beans. We weren't looking to invest a lot of time, but we weren't willing to sacrifice flavour either. I pulled out the Heinz Maple Style Beans in Sauce With Pure Quebec Maple Syrup and the Schneiders Grill'ems (fully cooked smoked sausages) with Cheddar. I just heated the sausages in the toaster oven for a bit, cut 'em up and threw them in a big bowl with the can of beans. I nuked the whole thing for a minute and a half and we were ready to eat.
I experimented in college a bit with wieners and beans...I spent a lot of time trying to get it just right. Some of the ingredients included bacon, various mustards, honey, worcestershire sauce, Frank's RedHot Original, every kind of baked bean you can think of, brown sugar, mozzarella, cheddar, parmesan, pepperoni, even corn! I've tasted a lot of other folks recipes too, there are just so many varieties!
