Hot dog dinner

Here is a dinner you can make with hot dogs. Hot dogs, beans, and french fries. This is a low fat beef hot dog. I had the hot dog without a roll or bread. I put ketchup on the french fries. Applesauce goes well with the hot dogs, beans, and french fries. I have my other hot dog meal listed. This has hot dogs, beans, and rice in place of the french fries.

Hot dog dinner

This is one of my favorites. Hot dogs with rice and beans. I sometimes add butter on top of the rice or applesauce mixed in or on the side. It goes well with the beans also. The hot dogs go well with mustard, ketchup, or applesauce on them. I buy turkey hot dogs most of the time since they have lower fat than the beef hot dogs.

Cannellini beans

These are cannellini beans which I use to cook pasta fagioli. They have high fiber and calcium in them. They are very tasty. If you make the tasty Italian dish pasta fagioli, you will be getting an added benefit of high fiber and calcium.

Pasta fagioli

This is an Italian favorite of mine. I pronounce it "pasta fazool". Pasta fagioli; "pasta and beans", is made with red tomato sauce, cannellini beans, and a small type of pasta like elbow macaroni or ditalini. I used ditalini in the picture. Cook the macaroni, sauce, and cannellini beans separate. When they are cooked you mix them all together. I add grated cheese and pepper. Add as much tomato sauce as you like. It tastes great and it is very easy to make.
