Description
A playful twist on traditional pasta, Fun Spaghetti Hot Dogs are wrapped in spaghetti and packed with flavor, perfect for family dining.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 Hot dogs
- 8 ounces Spaghetti
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian herbs
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti until it’s al dente, following package directions. Drain and set aside.
- While the pasta is cooking, take each hot dog and wrap it with cooked spaghetti, leaving some space between the wraps for appearance.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Carefully place the spaghetti-wrapped hot dogs in the skillet. Cook until golden brown on all sides, usually about 8-10 minutes, turning gently to prevent unraveling.
- Sprinkle with Italian herbs and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately with marinara sauce or a drizzle of olive oil.
Notes
For variety, try different types of pasta or add grated cheese on top before serving.
