Ingredients

  • 4 center-cut bacon slices, chopped

  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion

  • ¾ cup barbecue sauce

  • ½ cup low-sodium ketchup

  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard

  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tablespoon dill pickle juice

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 2 (15-ounce) cans no-salt-added navy or great northern beans, rinsed

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.

  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat; add bacon and cook, stirring often, until crispy, about 5 minutes. Transfer the bacon with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel-lined plate.

  3. Add onion to the drippings in the pan; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4 minutes. Stir in barbecue sauce, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire, pickle juice, garlic powder and paprika; bring to a simmer. Stir in beans until well combined.

  4. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish; sprinkle with bacon. Bake until bubbly and thickened, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

To make ahead

Prepare through Step 3 and refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 days before baking. Cover and refrigerate baked casserole for up to 4 days.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
