    If you like the kind of vegetarian baked beans that come in a can, you’re sure to love this yummy, quick homemade version even more. White beans are cooked in a skillet with a sweet and savory sauce. It's a dish that comes together quickly. For a simple meal, serve with baked sweet potatoes or a grain dish, and one of VegKitchen's slaw-style salads. Photos by Evan Atlas.

      Yay! So happy to find this!
      I love your cookbooks, especially the family book, and this has been a staple in our kitchen since my daughter was small and I had to be a sneakier cook.
      I'm cooking away from home, and memory failed on the specifics. Glad to find you online. Wishing you much success, health and joy!

      PS: Whoops! I thought I was writing to Nava Atlas, I recognized her recipe. Whoops! I still wish you the best!
