Mock Octopus and Beans

Grandkids gobble them up and don't complain that they want something else.

Ingredients:

  • hot dogs
  • canned baked beans

Directions:

Cut each hot dog in 1/2. Slice each hot dog in 1/2 again long wise leaving a small bulb at the top (this is the head). Turn the hot dog and slice long wise again you should have 4 legs now continue doing this until you have 8 legs.

Pour the baked beans into a shallow baking dish. Arrange the "octopus". Bake in the oven until warmed through or you can cook in the crock pot.

For kids, I would recommend soy dogs, as they are healthier in my opinion.
