This Baked Beans and Sausage Egg Brunch recipe was one of my favorite recipes made by my dad while growing up in Africa. He made it in different versions. Like sometimes he would use normal beef chunks, luncheon meat or little mini sausage links. I guess it was a matter of what my mom had available in the pantry.
WHAT PRODUCT TO USE FOR THE BAKED BEANS AND SAUSAGE EGG BRUNCH RECIPE:
I like buying the Heinz Baked Beans. It’s the blue and black can if you are familiar with it. I love it because I am just used to eating it since I was little growing up in Africa. They have them available at our local grocery store so I figured why not. When it’s not available I use the Bush’s Vegetarian Baked Beans which is available almost everywhere. I made this recipe with mini canned sausage links and I cut them up instead of leaving the whole sausage link as one piece. If you don’t like mini canned sausage links, you can use normal hot dog or turkey links, luncheon meat, whatever you prefer.
HOW TO MAKE THE BAKED BEANS AND SAUSAGE EGG BRUNCH:
Slice 2-3 cloves of garlic and dice 1/2 a Jalapeño pepper (optional if you have young kids). In a non-stick pan place one tablespoon of vegetable oil and slightly sauté them for about 30-45 seconds on medium heat. Place the sausages and cook until they are crispy and red on the outside. Typically takes about 5 minutes. Flip them occasionally so they can get crispy on all sides.
Pour in the baked beans, dash of salt and mix everything together then simmer on low heat for a few minutes to cook the baked beans. About 5 minutes on low heat. You can cover it while it simmers. Remove from heat and serve with some fried eggs. You can always eat it by itself with toast bread or eggs. I like having them with toasted pita bread.
I really love this dish. A lot of times if I happened to be hungry at night, I make it because it’s super easy and something that you can finish in just about 10-15 minutes. It’s very filling. If you don’t want to eat it with bread, you can just use extra sausage links in there and eat it plain. It’s super yummy and any way you decide to eat it, I am sure you will enjoy it!
