Hot Dogs and Beans...But Different!

Yes. Last night Jane called for Hot Dogs and Beans...But Different.

How is it different? Who could say? I didn't grow up with hot dogs and beans, thankfully. In fact, I could probably go the rest of my life without eating them again and be a completely happy camper. Unless I'm camping, in which case hot dogs and beans might be just the ticket.

This meal was really a gold star for Josh, however, as the man has a mild obsession with hot dogs.

The finished product = not aesthetic. Seriously though, how can you make hot dogs and beans look good? Trying hard to not stray too far from the integrity of Jane's recipe, I managed to make this meal a bit healthier by using Hebrew National All Beef Hot Doggies, and Vegetarian Baked Beans. I also cooked a side-dish of red potato's and brussel sprouts, to additionally health things up a smidge.

It tasted pretty good. Not sure if it beats the Hamburger Bean Ring, but you be the judge.


If you click on the picture, it gets huge. You may note the additional recipe of the Meat Shortcake. This one we decided to nix on account of concerns for our arteries.





There you have it. Hot Dogs and Beans - But Different.
