Rinse and drain the beans, set a side for a minute. (Slightly mash the beans with a fork if you like.)
In a sauce pan, add in the olive oil, onion and garlic, stir together and cook for about 3 minutes or until the onion and garlic become translucent.
After 3 minutes or so add in the carrots, bell peppers and the can tomatoes, give it a stir and also add in the kidney beans, stir together and season with 3 tablespoons of ketchup, 1 tablespoon of mustard
a pinch of cayenne pepper, and 1 teaspoon of brown sugar stir together, taste the flavor and add salt to taste.

Warm up the buns on a griddle, and serve the bean mixture over half a bun, cover with the second half and enjoy!
