“I have made this casserole several times, and it’s always a hit,” reports Roxanne VanGelder of Rochester, New Hampshire. The kid-pleasing combo has a sweet flavor from the baked beans and the corn bread topping. “The recipe saves on pans to wash if all were cooked separately,” Roxanne adds.

Made a few changes. Beef sausage instead of hotdogs (had a coupon), grilled the onions in the bacon fat, used Bush's Baked Beans (another coupon deal), added some garlic salt and pepper to spice up, and used GF cornbread mix.

This was a fun recipe. Thanks. I twisted it up a bit. I used Bush's canned beans and added a can of black beans and a small can of rotel original. We are empty nesters and usually eat a lot healthier. But my husband had this craving for beans and franks and voila! Thanks again.

Wasn't sure how this would go over at my party. It was delicious and a big hit. What great comfort food. I left out the mozzarella cheese cause I didn't see the point. It was still excellent. Thanks for this.

We thought this casserole was OK, but prefer the Sloppy Joe Under a Bun (also a Taste of Home recipe) in terms of casseroles that have bread on the top. I think maybe with the beans and cornbread both it is just a little too sweet for our taste.

I didn't really care for this recipe much. It could be that the canned beans that I had already were sweet with brown sugar. There are many other recipes that I prefer to make.

I used Bush's Best Grillin beans in Texas Ranchero, I also made my cornbread batter from scratch, the recipe is on the Quaker Corn Meal container, it is very easy. This was very good, I will make again!

My husband and I loved it!

The bacon is a great contrast to the sweetness of the beans. Definitely is going into our rotation of favorite meals.

Easy and pleased everyone who ate it tonight. Only change I made was leaving off the cheese. Thank you for the recipe. I will make it again.
