I found this recipe in a little French's product booklet, Potatoes on Parade. I have made homemade scalloped potatoes with franks before but I never thought of adding beans. It would stretch the recipe but I am not sure if I would really care for it. I have some potatoes that need to be used and a can of beans in the cupboard so I might just try it.
Frankly Mexican Casserole
1 package French's Scalloped Potatoes
1/2 pound frankfurters, sliced
1 can (15-oz.) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1/4 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon French's Chili Powder
Prepare potatoes as directed on package, except use 2-quart casserole and increase boiling water to 2-2/3 cups. Stir in frankfurters and beans. Bake in 400 degree oven 35 minutes; stir casserole. Melt butter in small pan; stir in bread crumbs and chili powder. Sprinkle over casserole and bake 10 t0 15 minutes longer, until potatoes are tender. 6 servings.

kidney beans and scalloped potatoes? Can't say I would ever think of that unique combo :)
maybe in layers - it sounds kinda good we like pinto beans.
