CALICO BAKED BEANS 
1/2 lb. ground round
1/2 lb. bacon, diced
1 lg. onion
1/2 c. catsup
2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. prepared mustard
4 tsp. cider or white vinegar

Cook bacon until almost crisp; add onion and ground meat; cook until onions are tender and meat loses its red color. Drain off excess fat. Stir in catsup, salt, mustard, vinegar and sugar.

Combine remaining ingredients in a 3 quart casserole; stir in meat mixture. Cover. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until bubbly. Garnish with bacon strips if desired.
