Ingredients

1 can white beans 14 oz can, undrained, I used great northern beans
8 slices bacon turkey or nitrate free | cooked, but not crispy. Cut into small pieces.
1 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp molasses
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup honey

Instructions

1. Add all ingredients to a medium sauce pot or large pan. I always spray my pans with olive oil before cooking, if you're nervous about sticking you can use olive oil, as well.
2. Allow the pork and beans simmer for 45 minutes or so, stirring a few times so the beans don't stick. If you'd like thicker beans, I leave the top off so some of the moisture can escape. If you're not worried about thick beans I'd leave the top on.
