Multi-Bean Hotdish

This is a potluck standard it seems.....and I feel like I enjoy the one at the potluck more than my own.  

We haven't had this for a really long time though, so today my version was super good.

This is a hotdish, but today we decided to eat it out of a bowl instead of on a plate.  It's almost like a soup, but a very very thick soup that you have to chew.....so not really like a soup. :) haha

1 can Pork & Beans (don't drain)

1 can Kidney Beans

1 can Garbonzo Beans (also known as Chickpeas)

1 can Lima Beans

1 can Large Butter Beans

1 can Navy Beans

1 lb hamburger

1/2 cup ketchup

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 Tbsp mustard

salt and pepper

Don't drain the Pork and beans, but take out the fatty pork part.  Drain all the other beans.  Dump everything together in a pot on the stove and mix together until heated through.  You can also put this in the crockpot on low until it's heated through. 

We like to eat it as a meal, but it could also be a side dish....which is probably how most other people eat it I think. :)  But we eat side dishes as meals all the time.  They still taste good, you just eat a bigger helping and all is well!
