Homebody Beans

This is a different recipe from chili or pork'n beans. DH wants this on a regular basis. Use two cans of beans for a smaller amount. I like a couple of cans of garbonzos and one of kidney, but use all kidney if you're feeding traditionalists. I got this years and years ago from Peg Bracken's "I Hate To Cook Book". It was the first cook book I bought ever, at Lake Tahoe when I was 16. Feel free to add chili or Italian spice mix or a boullion cube or two. I've done it all, but I didn't care for the apple bacon.
