Good ol' Beans and Taters

A lazy, rainy Monday - what could be better than some boiled potatoes with baked beans?  I credit my brother with the idea of putting cheese on top.  In this particular case, the meal doesn't quite fit our mostly-vegetarian paradigm since the beans have lard in them, but I've come to accept that it's just as good with the deep-browned beans in tomato sauce.

Good Ol' Beans and Taters

Ingredients:

• any sort of potatoes
• your favourite canned baked beans (or maybe you make them yourself, in which case tell me how!)
• some grated cheese if you like
• butter (optional)
• salt and pepper

Directions:

Boil the potatoes.  Heat up the beans.  Put some potatoes in a bowl and chop them into bite-sized pieces.  Slather with some butter, salt, and pepper, if you wish.  Dump some beans on top.  Top with grated cheese if you like.
