Ever since I saw this way of cooking spaghetti and hot dogs on Steamy Kitchen I’ve been wanting to try it with E. So we made it for his dinner last night.
You poke uncooked spaghetti noodles through hot dog slices.
Then once you have them all assembled you boil them in water until the noodles are cooked…
…and voila–wriggly squid creatures!
The next time I do this I’m going to use wider chunks of hot dog and draw on little faces with ketchup. 🙂
That's awesome! We are so doing that for lunch today. I love how E gets all schmancy in his vest to cook in the kitchen 🙂
Ditto on the sharp vest! That is one good-looking kid. (No pedo.)
They were a huge hit! Especially with ketchup (bleh!) Thanks for the tip, Faith – hot dog squids are now a summer staple.
Too bad I didn't get a picture of the floor-length evening gown I was wearing to cook in! E actually got a haircut last night so he looks a bit different now.
Glad the squids were a hit, Gwyn!
Haha! I've been meaning to try this.
This is too stinking cute!
