Hot Dog Pillows Recipe

September 23rd, 2009 at 09:10pm Under Creamy/Cheesy+ Pork

I made this recipe up when I couldn’t think of what to make for dinner. Everyone loved it and asked that I make it at least once a week.

Rate this recipe and see reviews here!

Ingredients

8 hot dogs, split down the middle, not all the way through
4 slices meltable cheese, cut in strips
2 1/2 C. leftover, cold, cheesy mashed potatoes
1/4 C. grated parmesan (optional)
4 Tbs. spicy mustard (optional)

Directions

Combine cold mashed potatoes with mustard and/or parmesan. With wet hands, add two slices cheese strip inside hot dog and then grab enough potato to cover the hot dog. It’s a bit messy, but worth it! Place on parchment lined baking sheet which has been lightly coated with cooking spray. Spray hot dogs and place in fridge for about 10 minutes.

Macaroni Gratin with Fresh Basil Recipe

September 18th, 2009 at 09:10pm Under Creamy/Cheesy

As someone who named his own first restaurant Spago, Italian slang for spaghetti, I like to turn my pasta green — and not just on March 17. On another occasion, I’ve shared with you one of my favorite recipes for pesto, one of my favorite green pasta sauces, a blend of fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese and olive oil, as brightly colored as it is fragrant and flavorful. I also love to color and flavor fresh pasta dough with spinach and serve it with sauces of meat and tomatoes or cream and cheese. Delicious.
