    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 love this sweet precious gift from God! I just found her videos this morning and I've only watched two and absolutely adore this woman! In fact, my eyes are leaking a little. (:->) Truly made my morning and has done my heart good! Thank you for posting!

    I make this all of the time and didn't even know it was depression cooking! I'll have to add some sauce because mine is usually just potatoes, onions & hot dogs!

    Love it with ketchup!

    Just finished making this minus the onion I didn't want to run out to the grocery store. I took a spoonful and it's yummy. I used like 6 potatoes and two packages of 97% fat free hot dogs, and I think I used WAY too much extra virgin olive oil but it's still yummy. I think I got like 5 meals out of it. Thank you Clara
