This is one of the easiest, quickest, satisfying dinners to make on my list. All you need are hot dogs (however many you & your family members want to eat per person), prepared mashed potatoes and cheddar cheese. Slice hot dogs down the middle, stuff with mashed potatoes and top with shredded cheese. Place on a cookie sheet covered with tin foil and bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes, until hot dogs are cooked and cheese is melted. This recipe has been in my family for generations. When my Grandma was a little girl (on my Mom's side of the family), she remembers going to visit her grandmother Emily all the time. One night, Grandma Emily wasn't expecting company, and she apologized to my Grandma about not having anything special to give her for dinner. When it was time to eat, this was what she served. My Grandma couldn't believe how great it tasted. Grandma Emily had come up with this idea all on her own, and we've had it many, many times both while I was little, and now my kids get to eat something that was invented by their great-great-great grandmother. Both my kids LOVE these. We had them for dinner again last night & Aubrey had two whole hot dogs because one wasn't enough to satisfy her! :) I highly recommend these to everyone because they're so fast, easy, and kids just love 'em. :)
