Wow - are you kidding me? Check out that sodium level - not even trying this one!
almost 11 years agoYowzer, that bacon really adds a lot of salt. Definitely should consider using sodium-reduced bacon and then only add salt to taste.

Checked on the nutrition facts and discovered this recipe was using canned beans instead of dried (which have a ton of salt) for the nutrition calculation. Updated the recipe to specify dried beans, and the sodium level is much more accurate and reasonable now.
