A Recipe by Richard Mann If you are a vegetarian with a crock pot and a hankerin' for Boston Baked Beans, have we got a recipe for you! The rest of you might also want to take a look at this, too; it's a good recipe for a hearty pot of baked beans with that traditional Boston flavor--we just left out the salt pork. It's no great loss; the beans are good.

Boston Baked Beans for the Crock Pot, Vegetarian Style
2 1/2 cups dried navy or kidney beans, soaked 5 hours
1/3 cup molasses
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon Bakon yeast (available at health food stores)
2 teaspoons tamari
2 medium onions, chopped into large pieces
2 bay leaves
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
freshly cracked pepper
After soaking the beans overnight (at least 5 hours), drain the beans, cover with fresh water, and bring to a boil for 5 minutes. Then drain again. Whisk together the molasses, sugar, mustard, cayenne, Bakon yeast, and tamari in a bowl, then mix with the beans and add the onions, bay leaves, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Place in a crock pot and add water to cover the beans. Cover and cook on low until the beans are very soft, 7 to 8 hours. Check periodically and add more water, if needed, to keep the beans from drying out.
Serves 6.
Of course, this is not my favorite baked bean recipe, although it is an extremely good one, and, of course, this is a vegetarian version. Click over to The Best Baked Beans in the World to read about and see the recipe for the absolutely finest (non-vegetarian) baked beans known to man.

Fix-It and Forget-It Cookbook: Feasting with your Slow Cooker We usually feature bean cookbooks here, but this superb slow cooker (crock pot) cookbook has at least a hundred great bean recipes in it! My wife brought it home and I'm sold on it. The "Bean Main Dishes" section alone has 53 recipes. Recipes are short, simple, tasty, and don't use weird ingredients that you don't already have. And, while I'm excited about the bean recipes (the Sausage Bean Quickie will be the first one we try), the rest of the recipes also look wonderful. The cover says it's a "National #1 bestselling cookbook!" I believe it. Highly recommended by Bean Bible!
