Dec 27, 2011 - lol i didn't know anyone else cooked this :) i've cooked this for most of my life, i thought i made it up :) sometimes i scramble ground beef with onions first with a bit of salt and pepper, then when its done then i add the potatoes and let them get good and soft, its delicious, and you don't get all that extra salt that's in the weiners :) and i also love adding a bit of salsa to it for flavor :) gotta love a simple meal like this

Feb 16, 2012 - You're such a sweet lady and I didn't just find this entertaining this is also touching to know what you went through, it makes me thankful to have more options with my food and I will be even more wise with my food from now on. I am 24 so I have never known what it truly means to have nothing and I hope I never do. Thank you for posting this it was a joy!
