Skip the grill for tasty Barbecued Pork and Beans

Here are barbecue flavors without heating up the grill and in only 15 minutes. It's perfect for a weeknight meal.

My secret to quickly broiling the meat is to place a foil-lined baking tray under the broiler while the broiler preheats. The foil lining helps with quick clean-up. Placing the pork on a heated tray helps the meat cook faster.

There are many flavored barbecue sauces. I like to pick a reduced-sodium one that doesn't have high-fructose corn syrup as the first ingredient.

Helpful Hints:

_ Boneless pork chops can be used instead of pork tenderloin.

_ Any type of canned beans can be used.

Countdown:

_ Preheat broiler.

_ Place foil-lined baking tray under broiler while it heats.

_ Make pork.

_ While pork broils, make beans.

_ Assemble dinner.

Shopping List:

To buy: } pound pork tenderloin, 1 bottler reduced-sodium barbecue sauce, 1 can reduced-sodium small red kidney beans, 1 bag washed, ready-to-eat lettuce and 2 small tomatoes.

Staples: distilled vinegar, brown sugar and reduced-fat vinaigrette dressing.
