For a smoky flavor, consider adding a dash of liquid smoke to the bean mixture. If you prefer a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and add a tablespoon of olive oil for richness. To add more depth, try sauteing the chopped onion in a bit of bacon fat before adding it to the beans. These baked beans can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving, making them a convenient choice for busy cooks.
