This hearty Hot Dog Stew transforms humble ingredients into a comforting, flavorful meal. Sliced wieners simmer in a vibrant sauce featuring golden onions, smoky paprika, and fresh garlic, while chunky potatoes add satisfying substance. The addition of green peppers and tomatoes creates a balanced, nutritious one-pot wonder. Easy to prepare in under an hour, this budget-friendly dish serves four generously and pairs perfectly with crusty bread for a complete lunch or casual dinner.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Uncle Dave says... The word "stew" is barely valid in this recipe. It looks pretty un-stew-like to me.

๐Ÿ™„ Help: Seriously? You don't need any help.
๐ŸŒ„ What's Up With The Images: Well, originally, we didn't have any pictures of the food. Intentionally. Because I find those sites with so many pictures it takes forever to get through the directions to be annoying AF! I mean, seriously, if you need a picture to show you how to stir something, you shouldn't be cooking!
Then I decided to add pictures of the finished product when I remembered to take them, which isn't very often. There are a very few recipes which actually show some cooking steps, but not in the middle of the directions.
Anyway, recently I have discovered that AI can make credible images of the finished recipe. Is that right? Is it moral? Are robots taking over the world? Don't know; don't care. But I promise that unless you are a robot, your recipes won't turn out anything like the pictures.
๐Ÿ’ฏ Why There Are Recipe Numbers Missing: Well, it's like this. The recipe numbers are automatically generated by the database, always using a new number for a new recipe. Over the last 20 years many recipes, mostly test recipes, have been added and then deleted, leaving only their memory and their number behind. And there was also a lot of weird stuff going on in the beginning, which messed up the order. In terms of date added, the first one is #6, then #4, #9, #10, #4, #718!!!, #2, and finally #1. Just the way databases and poor programmers work!
