Default Doe's anyone have a name for this recipe? Got this from my Mom..

I got this recipe from my Mom. I don't know if she made it up herself. I've never seen or heard of anyone
else making it..I call it "bean and bacon open face sandwiches"..
for each sandwich:
fry 2 or 3 slices of bacon..while the bacon is frying
toast 1 slice of bread...whatever kind you like
open a can of pork and beans into a bowl. Mix in some prepared mustard, a little brown sugar. { or you could use a can of the seasoned beans}
put toasted bread on a baking sheet, spoon on some beans to cover it, put a slice of cheese on top of that and warm it up in a 350 degree oven for about 10 min. till cheese is melted and beans are warm.
put on plate, put bacon on top and enjoy !!

I've not done it this way, but we do eat something similar. We season our baked beans and add bacon. Shred cheese over it and top with canned biscuits. Bake until the biscuits are done. I'm sure the taste would be very similar.

I really don't have a name for our dish either. I got it from my MIL years ago.

I put the Bacon and Cheese Whiz on the toast, pour on the hot beans and skip the oven step.

Just call it "Mom's Recipe" or "Full of Beans." Looks like it doesn't have an official name...yet, but someone on this Board may know it. :-)

The original name was beans on toast. My grandmother made it for my father, and he used to make it up for us. During the depression bacon, bread and bacon were part of the main staples. Like Kraft dinner was for our generation. It was a simple and filling meal with little cost. The cheese on top is a nice touch. My Dad would put thin slices of a hot dog on top. He would also use two thick slices of bread and do it up like a grilled cheese sandwich.

Our mom used to make this. We always put mayo on the bread first (after toasted), then the beans, cheese and bacon. So yummy!

Don't the British folks eat "beans on toast"? maybe this is it. Sure sounds like something I'd try at least once. How can you miss.
