New England Baked Bean Stew

I recently made this recipe for dinner. I got the recipe out of Betty Crocker's Quick and Easy Cookbook. My husband and I really liked this dish, so I was a little surprised when I looked up the recipe online and saw that it only had a 3.5 star rating - don't be fooled by this inaccurate assessment - only 2 people have reviewed it (and I tried to give it a review, but you have to sign up for the website in order to review the recipes)! The only thing I changed in this recipe is I didn't add the green onions. It really was super easy and would be very easy to double (or triple!) for a larger crowd. All you really have to do is cut and cook the chicken and slice the sausage then you just dump everything else in the pan. Here are a few pictures from when I made the dish.

Yummy dinner!

My only thought for changing this dish is that I could have easily used more meat and my husband would have been even happier (but I thought the dish was delicious enough as is).
My cookbook suggested serving this dish with Italian bread, but I served mine with corn bread (as you can see in the picture above) which was delicious. The sweetness of the cornbread complemented the meaty flavor of the stew very well.
