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”.
