This is the perfect recipe to have dinner ready and waiting when you get home from after-school soccer practice/violin lessons/whatever. It took me all of FIVE minutes to prepare. (I am not fond of it, but my kids loved the stuff.) If you're trying to eat less meat, this is a great way to get the hotdog flavor without so much hotdog, and without a bun (brown rice is much better for us than a processed white hotdog bun!) Plus, if you use buffalo hot dogs, you'll get a good serving of omega-3!
