SLOW-COOKED BEAN MEDLEY

Slow-Cooked Bean Medley image

I often change the variety of beans in this classic recipe, using whatever I have on hand to total the five cans called for. The sauce makes any combination delicious! It's a gluten-free side dish that's popular with just about everyone. -Peggy Gwillim, Strasbourg, Saskatchewan
