Hot Dog Spaghetti

When I posted our meal plan for this week, I got lots of interest in the Hot Dog Spaghetti. I have to be honest, I was interested in how it would turn out. Hubby has talked about this "dish" since we started dating. When he first moved out of his parents house, he had a very low grocery budget and virtually no cooking skills. Hot Dog Spaghetti was something he could fix himself that didn't bust his budget but still tasted good.

This "dish" is so easy to make and is a kid pleaser! Both my boys gobbled it up. When hubby warmed up the one serving that was left for a snack later, the boys ended up eating most of it. From the one bite I managed to grab, the leftovers tasted even better than the original.

You'll need:

hot dogs (I used 5 hot dogs for the 4 of us) $0.50

spaghetti noodles FREE

spaghetti sauce $0.45

oregano, garlic powder, & Italian seasoning - to taste $0.05

Cook hot dogs (I nuked them in the microwave). Cut them up into bite sized pieces. Meanwhile, cook spaghetti noodles as directed on package. Add spaghetti sauce and spices, warm over low heat until heated through. Add hot dogs and stir. Serve with homemade bread ($.50?).

Total Meal Cost : $1.50
