6         cups          water 
4         cups          Baked Beans (in molasses) 
1-1/2     cups          canned tomatoes

Preparation:

Put the water, 3 cups of the baked beans, the onion, celery, tomatoes, and chili powder in a large pot. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, for 30 minutes. Carefully puree the mixture in a blender or food processor, or mash and beat by hand until smooth. Return to the pot, add the reserved 1 cup of beans and reheat after adding salt and pepper to taste. Serve with a salad and some nice, dense bread.
