  • Budget eating? Hell, I eat this for fun on payday!

  • Dear Nana Clara,

    Your grandchildren must love you so much. The fact that your grandson visits you with his chums says a lot about your tender heart. I would love to have you as my nana, too.

  • I have made this!! I just thought it was potatoes and onions with cut-up hotdogs. I have used sausage links and ground sausage. I have even used ground beef in this!!

  • @zeropointpower If you don't like hot dogs, I'm sure you could try it with sausage.

  • lol i didn't know anyone else cooked this :) i've cooked this for most of my life, i thought i made it up :) sometimes i scramble ground beef with onions first with a bit of salt and pepper, then when its done then i add the potatoes and let them get good and soft, its delicious, and you don't get all that extra salt that's in the weiners :) and i also love adding a bit of salsa to it for flavor :) gotta love a simple meal like this
