Cheddar Baked Beans image

Another recipe from a singing legend. Remember Isaac Hayes? Of "Shaft" fame? He has a tremendous cookbook and there are so many wonderful recipes, I dedicated an entire cookbook for his recipes. There is nothing fancy about soul food, but it has been served to many famous people. Hope you like it. It has "store-bought baked beans to give you a hand to begin with.
