Ingredients
- 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 2 15-ounce cans no-salt-added navy beans, rinsed
- 1 cup water
- 3/4 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions
- Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and ground beef. Cook, stirring and crumbling beef with a wooden spoon, until the onion has softened and the beef is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add beans, water, ketchup, molasses, mustard, garlic powder and salt; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring, until the mixture is bubbling and slightly thickened, 5 to 8 minutes. Garnish with chives, if desired.
