Mom's Baked Beans

In a medium pan, melt 1 Tbs. butter and saute 1 small chopped onion. Cut 4 pieces of bacon in smallish pieces and saute with onions (optional). Add 2 regular size cans of Van Kamp's Pork & Beans (drained) and 1 can Rotel (not drained). Add 3/4 cup brown sugar. Stir together and cook on medium heat until desired thickness. This serves about 4 people. *If you like it spicier, add hot Rotel and not as much brown sugar. The Tucker family likes it sweet, so we use the regular Rotel and add a little more brown sugar.

If I am making this for more than 4 adults, I use 2 large cans of the beans and 2 cans of Rotel.
