My husband raved about this sweet bean dish after tasting it at a party, so I knew I had to get the recipe. It's perfect for get-togethers because you can mix it up a day early and toss it in the slow cooker a few hours before your guests arrive. -Jan Biehl, Leesburg, Indiana

MAMMAK'S PINTO BEANS WITH GROUND BEEF



MammaK's Pinto Beans with Ground Beef image

My mother made this recipe for pinto beans with ground beef for us as kids and I have used it many times in feeding my 4 boys. When the space shuttle fell, our small town filled up overnight with searchers for the space shuttle debris, and this is one of the recipes that I used to help feed the masses. It was a hit every time. We served it with cornbread and a side salad for a complete meal or over a bed of rice. My mom would top off a bowl of this with homemade sweet salsa. Yum!
