4 slices bacon
1/2 c. chopped onion
2 (16 oz. each) cans pork and beans
1/4 c. packed brown sugar
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp. pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon

Separate bacon slices and place on several paper towels; top with another paper towel. Microwave (High) 3 to 4 minutes or until bacon is almost crisp. Remove bacon from paper towels; cool, crumble and set aside.

Place onion in microwave-safe 2-quart casserole. Cover with waxed paper or lid. Microwave (High) 2 to 3 minutes or until tender. Stir in remaining ingredients. Re-cover with waxed paper and microwave (High) 8 to 10 minutes, stirring once, or until hot. Makes 6 to 8 servings.

Hint: Add cooked bacon to beans and cook as above. Or sprinkle with cooked bacon right before serving.
