Franks and Beans in a Slow Cooker

My friend Beth, at that's not me anymore, Beth's take on technology and microwave hot dogs. has initiated a conversation about gourmet hot dog suppers. I thought I would contribute this:

Franks and Beans in a Slow Cooker

2 16 oz cans of great northern beans, drained
1 16oz can of cut green beans, drained
1 8 oz can of tomato sauce
1 chopped onion
¼ cup of sugar or sugar substitute
2 tsp of yellow mustard
A dash of black pepper
16 oz of frankfurters, cut into circles

Spray container with butter flavored cooking spray. Combine beans and tomato sauce in the container. Add onion, sugar, mustard, and pepper. Mix well. Stir in frankfurters. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. Mix well before serving.

If you choose fat free hot dogs and use sugar substitute, viola (that sic is for you Annie), you have a diet supper.

  1. (snicker, snicker, snicker...) Sorry, I just read Sherri's comment! "O love this kind of stuff!"

    AHEM. That sounds yummy. I'm on my way to take a package of hot dogs out of the freezer for tomorrow.

    Is it just me, or did anyone else think of the bathroom scene in "What About Mary?" when they read "franks and beans"?

    Oh. I'm back from painting.

  2. Don't forget the Diet Coke Helen. Oh, and have you ever used Coke in that type of recipe instead of sugar? Dr. Pepper works well too.

  4. Katdish, I never saw that movie. Was it any good?
    Sherri, I normally don't like franks and beans, but this tastes good to me somehow..
    Annie, no I didn't ever do that. 1 whole can? Other ingredients the same?
    Beth, it doesn't take much planning. You probably have all the ingredients at home anyway. It is only a matter of emptying the containers earlier than usual....

  7. You can increase your water intake throughout the day. During your resistance training workouts, you should practice fascial stretching.

    Having a six-pack or eight-pack abdomen is a dream for thousands of
    people, which is further fortified by the screen shots of their favorite actors who have the perfect physique with muscular arms and chest.
