When I married my husband more than 30 years ago, I asked my mother-in-law for some of his favorite dishes, writes Diane Hendrixson of Wapakoneta, Ohio. Knowing money was tight, she sent this one that I still make. It remains a bargain at 71ยข a serving.
Ingredients:
1 can (20 ounces) pineapple tidbits
1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules
1/3 cup boiling water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium green pepper, julienned
2 tablespoons butter
5 hot dogs, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/2-inch slices
3 cups hot cooked rice
Directions:
1. Drain pineapple, reserving juice. Set aside 1 cup pineapple and 6 tablespoons juice; refrigerate remaining pineapple and juice for another use. Dissolve bouillon in water. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch, brown sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, bouillon and reserved juice until smooth; set aside.
2. In a large skillet, saute the onion and green pepper in butter. Stir cornstarch mixture; stir into skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add the hot dogs and reserved pineapple; cook until heated through. Serve over rice. Yield: 3 servings.
