  2. I love beef and beans, they’re so good! My recipe is very similar (just a few variations), but I definitely want to give your recipe a try. I’ve never added bacon time mine, but it looks like a tasty addition.

  5. I’ve never made beans from scratch before. How sad is that?! This looks easy enough that I could give it a try though.
