alien hot dogs

I'm always looking for things that are easy, cheap, and fun to make for my kids. One of my mommy friends posted a photo in our mommy group on facebook a photo of hot dogs cut up with pasta through them, before and after cooking. It looked weird and a little gross. In other words, perfect for my three little boys! So I decided to wing it. i boiled a pan of water. As it was boiling, I sliced up cold hot dogs and slid raw angel hair noodles through them.


I cooked according to the angel hair directions. This was the result:






It came out pretty good, the only change I would make is to use thin spaghetti instead of angel hair, as while the hot dogs were cooked, they weren't as hot as I'd like. The kids loved them--they dipped them in ketchup and had a ball!
