Four-Bean Casserole

Submitted by AmyZoe

"This is the best baked bean dish I've ever had. I've been searching for the perfect bean recipe, and this might just be it. Recipe from Home Cookin' With Dave's Mom (David Letterman). I substituted different beans based on what I had on hand, but it's delicious. I must confess, this is even more delicious with a hot dog or better yet eat it like a chili dog. YUMMY!"

Made this for a potluck on Sun. where I knew there would be 2 vegetarians. They loved it and, because I knew they like very hot food, I even added some hot pepper flakes. Very good cold too with a dollop of yoghurt on top. Next time I make it I will use my own tomato sauce - prefer the texture and taste.
