Hot Dog Potato Soup
August 28, 2009
Madilyn helped Mommy make dinner for the first time tonight. We made “Hot Dog Potato Soup,” a recipe in this month’s issue of Simple & Delicious from Taste of Home.
She poured in the cans of soup, the shredded cheese, milk and even the hot dog pieces. All that was left was for Mommy to heat it up on the stove. Here’s the recipe in case you’d like to make it. It’s really yummy!
Hot Dog Potato Soup
Prep/Total Time: 15 min., $1.79 per serving
Jeannie Klugh of Lancaster, PA, who submitted the recipe says you can make this with leftover meatballs instead of hot dogs and leftover corn in place of frozen. Use any cheese blend you have on hand.
2 cans (18.8 oz. each) ready to serve chunky baked potato with cheddar and bacon bits soup
4 hot dogs, halved lengthwise and sliced
1 cup (4 oz.) shredded cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup frozen corn
1 cup milk
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine all the ingredients. Cover and microwave on high for 8-10 minutes or until heated through, stirring every 2 minutes. Yield: 5 servings.

Kate, I didn’t think about Madilyn helping me yet until there was an article in the paper this week about getting your kids to help around the house even as young as this age, and THEN, her teacher at mother’s day out said Madilyn was so excited when I sent a brownie in her lunch box that she watched me make the night before … then I knew she was ready to help me in the kitchen! also, if i put a new food in front of her sometimes she automatically says “yucky!” without trying it. because she helped make dinner, she was excited to eat it and ate every bite! you’ll be a great mom. can’t wait till you have youngins!
