Brown the Meat: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the oleo (butter). Add the ground beef, and brown it until fully cooked, breaking it apart as it cooks.

Add Ingredients: Stir in the kidney beans (with their liquid), ketchup, water, prepared mustard, vinegar, brown sugar, and chopped onions. Combine well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Transfer to Casserole Dish: Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Pour the mixture into a 2 1/2 quart casserole dish, ensuring it’s spread evenly.

Bake: Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until the mixture is hot and bubbly, with a slight crust forming on top.
-
Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. These baked beans pair wonderfully with ham, or you can enjoy them on their own alongside a fresh salad and crusty bread.

Notes: To avoid using butter or other shortening, you can use a non-stick pan for browning the meat. Additionally, feel free to experiment with different ground meats according to your preference. This recipe can also be halved if you’re cooking for a smaller gathering or want to make a smaller batch.
