Bacon mac ‘n cheese hot dogs

True story: We have 7 siblings that all live within a 6-mile radius of each other, (did you know we’re currently next-door neighbors? Oh, and that there are 9 of us kids total?) With us all being married with children of our own, that is a LOT of cousins for our kiddos to play with! Like, we see cousins every. single. day. We end up feeding each other kids often so we’re always on the hunt for cheap and yummy meals to satisfy our little army of nieces + nephews. These bacon macaroni and cheese hot dogs are packed with homegrown flavor you grew up with, add some mac’ n cheese to the mix and viola! The perfect kid meal = Bacon Mac & Cheese Dogs!

We love this meal because we can spruce it up with homemade mac or if we’re in a rush, snag a box from the pantry and have a ready-made lunch within minutes that the kids always scarf down.

In the summertime we usually swim after lunch but today we busted out our UNO cards and laughed as we observed our niece and my youngest daughter make up their own version on how to play that involved baby zombies. LOL!
