Assembly Directions:
Slice the hot dogs into 1/2” pieces. Combine the
soup and milk, stirring to mix.
Freezing Directions:
Put the hot dogs in a freezer bag or rigid
container. Add the soup mixture. Seal, label and
freeze.
Cooking and Serving Directions:
Thaw bag overnight in the refrigerator. Spray your
crock pot with cooking spray. Put the pasta in the
crock pot. Add the hot dogs and sauce, and the
onions. Stir to mix. Cook on low for 5 hours. As the
pasta cooks, it will absorb the sauce, and this will
get very thick. If it’s too thick for you, add the
additional cup of milk. Top each serving with a
sprinkle of cheese.
Comments:
This is different, but very tasty! I tried the
recipe by combining everything in the crock pot,
cooking for 3 hours, and then freezing it. Then
thaw, and reheat in the crock pot. The pasta turned
to mush that way. You could also use Cream of
Mushroom soup, but I thought the Cream of Celery
would be more “kid-friendly”.
