Tomato Baked Beans

My inspiration for this recipe besides submitting it to RSC #9 was to make another vegetarian baked beans. I think I only found one vegetarian baked beans recipe on this site so I wanted to diversify by creating my own.

First thing order of ingredients are always a pleasant thing on recipes being helpful to follow. I found this very very sweet! Would have enjoyed herbs, garlic a little kick from peppers be it sweet or and hot one. I did start this stove top but found the beans sticking to the bottom and needed to be stirred often so I put it into 325 degree oven for about 4 hours till nice and thick.Reply
