These Hot Dog Mac ‘n Cheese Casserole recipe was adapted from the Taste of Home Ultimate Casserole Cookbook. It was a hit with all the adults as well the kids! It’s like a grown up version of what your parents used to throw together for you when you were a kid 😉 I really loved this, and I would love to hear how you like it too!! Especially if you make any variations of this, I would love to know!! I munched on this all night when no one was looking. I didn’t want them to know that I liked it that much. I mean, I’m too grown up for mac ‘n cheese with hot dogs 😉

I made this tonight and it was super yummy. I used cocktail wieners instead of hot dogs. I did not have dried mustard so I added a squirt or two of dijon mustard to the milk. I whisked it in and it was super yummy. Will be making again soon . 5 stars
