PARTYTIME BEANS

Partytime Beans image

A friend brought this colorful bean dish to my house for a church circle potluck dinner. As soon as I tasted the slightly sweet slow-cooked beans, I had to have the recipe. I've served the beans and shared the recipe many times since. -Jean Cantner, Boston, Virginia
