Number Of Ingredients 11

3 medium yellow onions
5 cups water
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Splenda sugar substitute, brown sugar
2 teaspoons yellow mustard
1/4 cup molasses
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup turkey bacon, chopped
2 cups navy beans, dried

Steps:

Soak navy beans in 6 cups of water overnight.
In the morning drain the beans and place in a cast iron pot with 2 cups of chopped onions (2 whole medium onions) and 5 cups of water.
Boil the beans and onions on medium heat for 1.5 or 2 hours with the pot half covered.
(The beans are cooked when the skins begin to split and you can squish one with your tongue on the roof of your mouth.).
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Drain the bean/onion mixture and return to the cast iron pot with a fresh 5 cups of water.
Place a whole peeled medium onion in the center of the pot.
Mix the additional 7 ingredients (vinegar, Splenda, mustard, molasses, ketchup, salt and pepper) and stir into the pot.
Stir in the chopped turkey bacon.
Place the covered pot in the oven and bake for 4-6 hours, checking 2 or 3 times to make sure the beans are not drying out. If they appear too dry add another cup of water and continue cooking until they are your desired texture.
