Stuffed Franks
"This is an "Oak-ie" dish my Mom made often when I was a kid. A heart attack waiting to happen...maybe, but so good that it's my birthday dinner every year with corn on the cob! Goo-ey, cheesy goodness. Enjoy!"

My family loved it! I had a lot of leftover mashed potatoes, though. With today's huge produce, it would have been fine to use half of the potatoes called for. But definitely a creative, fun use of hot dogs! Yummy!

Love to cook. I live in the foothills in Northern California. I enjoy watching the wildlife in the summer and baking up a storm during the winter snow. I'm a cook book collector. Just got a new Vintage Betty Crocker that gives helpful hints on how to manage taking care of your husband and family and still have enough time to make them good food. LOL!
Oddly enough, no one in the family eats anything from the water, not even tuna from a can.
