"5-Ingredient Fix Contest Entry. Simply Potatoes - traditional mashed potatoes piled on top of a open faced grilled turkey hot dog with a topping of cheese and a hidden serving of spinach and onion underneath the snow (mashed potatoes). This recipe is a favorite of my grandchildren, is simple to make and is a meal in one - protein, vegetable, dairy and simply filling!"
