This is the best mac and cheese with hot dogs! Reason is, I have 3 boys, ages 4, 2, and 1. When I made it before I would have to wait for the water to boil, and then add the hot dogs, and macaroni ingredients. Seems like it took forever the way I used to do it. Cooking it this way saves me a lot of time, and happier boys. Thanks so much. This will be my go to recipe for mac and cheese w/ hot dogs!!

This was my favorite meal as a kid! With peas and ketchup. Now I make it with veggie dogs. Great comfort food!

Delicious. I've been making this for my boys for years. It is so simple! I made it today for lunch to use up the left over hot dogs we had in the fridge
