Beans, beans, the musical fruit.....

Breakfast time in our home is sometimes a bit of a pain... Hubby wants a full tummy to go off to work (and despite my complete aversion to white bread he still insists on it) preferring a cooked brekky to my favourite of homemade muesli and my own yoghurt with fresh fruit. Mr 13 will eat 2 bowls or more of Vita-Brits and top up on them throughout the day, while little Miss fussy 11 is a lot harder to please - her tastes vary from day to day.

I find that if I menu plan for breakfast along with the rest of the meals it's a lot smoother in the mornings.
I've wanted to try a Tana Ramsey recipe for Baked Beans for ages and a friend mentioned doing them in the slow cooker - sold!!
I googled a bit then made up my own variation.



In they went overnight and we woke up to delicious baked beans for brekky - a million times better than tinned ones, and I know exactly what's in it!



Served on toasted English muffins (yes I know, white bread.. Sigh) with a little grated cheese.
Best brekky for a chilly morning.

Now the bad news...
How do I put this?

Beans make you fart.
A lot.

And we took another drive up to check out the country town we will be moving to if the bank says yes. An hour and a half in the car with a farting family made for an interesting day trip I must say!

Good for a giggle I guess...

  2. mmmm not a fan of beans but they do look good and wholesome!
    At least if you all eat them you are equally to blame for the aftermath! x
