At this point if you want to be fancy, de glaze pot with a splash
of wine and reduce until dry. (Red or white, whichever is open).
Add baked beans (or spaghetti) and turn heat down. Open the
can of mixed beans and wash under cold water for a minute.
Add to pot and bring to simmer.
Add salt and pepper to taste, grate or chop your cheese and
add to pot stirring all the time until melted.
Pull off the heat, taste, adjust seasoning if needed, add fresh
herbs and serve.
