Franks and French Fries

This recipe has FOR CHILDREN written all over it!  Not, really, but when you see the title and read the ingredients, you know it would be a huge hit with almost any child!

I got this recipe from one of my sister-in-law's church elders' wives cookbooks.  I took a picture of it to share with all of you.  

I look forward to making interesting dish for my kids!  Not sure I would like it (I don't eat 'franks'!), but I know that at least two of them will.  I think my husband would, too.  :)

FRANKS AND FRENCH FRIES

1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 pound frankfurters, sliced diagonally
3 Tablespoons butter
2 (9-ounce) packages frozen French-fried potatoes
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 (8-ounce) cans tomato sauce
1/4 pound cheddar cheese chunks
2 Tablespoons chopped parsley

In a lare skillet lightly saute' onion and franks in butter. Push to edge of skillet, forming a ring.  Place frozen French-fried potatoes in center of ring and saute' 5 minutes more, turning potatoes to brown all sides. Add salt and pepper, tomato sauce and cheese chunks.  Sprinkle with parsley. Simmer until cheese melts.  Serves 4 to 5.

  1. I hadn't read all of them but this one does sound kid-friendly! Of course she was probably making this long before cheese fries were popular!
