    Hi all,

    A very easy way to make a can of Pork and Beans more of a real meal is to pour a can of it over hot dogs/wieners and drizzle syrup over the whole thing. Nuke the result in the microwave (covered if you don't want to clean up a mess). A five minute meal when company shows up unannounced.

    An simple way to make it a bit more upscale if you have a bit more time is to cook a rasher (sp?) of bacon, cut into small pieces and spread it over the syrup. A side of cornbread will help balance the beans, hot dogs, syrup and bacon. (Pork? Don't you know there is no pork in Pork and Beans, except maybe a tiny piece of fat...)
