    Sweet Mango Baked Beans

    I really enjoy some good baked beans. Especially with ribs or chicken. Living in Southern California, with its huge Mexican influence, you often find refried beans, pinto beans, and black beans.

    Nothing wrong with that at all, just a little more challenging to find some good baked beans. So I decided to make these Sweet Mango Baked Beans.

    Sweet Mango Baked Beans

    Since I love mango, this Sweet Mango Baked Beans recipe was a win-win for me. If you have a hard time finding Great Northern Beans at your local grocery store, you can easily substitute for a different type of white beans like Navy Beans or Cannellini beans.

    Love Baked Beans? Then check out more recipes in Side Dishes. My Root Beer Baked Beans recipe is one of my personal favorites.

    🥓 How to Make Bacon

    If you struggle to make bacon perfectly, I've put together a short tutorial on How to Make Perfect Bacon - 3 Ways. Check it out! My preferred method is baking it in the oven.

    And don't throw away that bacon grease! Bacon is expensive and the grease is great for making Scrambled Eggs, Grilled Cheese, Popcorn and even hash browns. It can keep up to 3 months if properly stored in the refrigerator.

    🌶 How to Handle Hot Peppers

    The capsaicin in hot peppers is what makes peppers hot. If you handle hot peppers gloveless, it’s a guarantee that you’re in for a nasty case of chili burn, both on your fingers and anywhere you rub. Like your face. Ouch!

    Even if you wear disposable gloves, be careful about what you touch. The gloves are going to protect your fingers, but touching any part of your body with the gloves after you’ve handled hot peppers can lead to severe chili burn. Resist the temptation to rub your eyes. Wait until you’ve removed your gloves and washed your hands thoroughly with soap.
