HOT DOG PASTA SALAD
The original recipe for this - which I've modified a bit - has been sitting in my computer recipe file for a long time - and I have no idea where it came from. At first I figured it was from the internet, but when I went looking with all my usual searching tools, I couldn't find it, so maybe it just showed up as an email virus attachment and parked itself in my recipe file, quietly waiting until I went insane enough to look for a salad recipe using hot dogs. Well, it happened one day last month and I decided to give it a go. I was sufficiently impressed with the results to share it with you. Oh, and kids seem to like this quite a lot as well. If you're going to serve it to little ones, make sure to cut the hot dogs up smaller (not just into circles) so as to avoid choking possiblities. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Cook macaroni according to package directions, just until tender.
- Drain and rinse well with cold water.
- Meanwhile, cook hot dogs as desired- grill'em, boil'em or pan-fry; cool enough to handle, then slice into circles.
- If small children will be eating this, cut the circles in halves or quarters to avoid choking hazards.
- Combine mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar and salt & pepper in small bowl.
- Place hot dogs and pasta in large bowl and add remaining ingredients.
- Pour dressing over and toss gently with two spoons until all the bits are coated with dressing.
- Chill for two hours or longer in refrigerator before serving.

Steps:
- Cook pasta according to directions and set aside.
- Cut hotdogs on the diagonal into 1/4 inch pieces and combine in a mixing bowl with the chilli powder until pieces are evenly coated.
- In a pan on high heat, brown both/all sides of the dogs.
- Add hotdogs to the pasta with the beans and remaining condimants and cool in refrigerator for 4 hours. Could also be served hot I suppose.
- Try adding chopped tomatoes too. Also good to try without ketchup and adding saurkraut and extra mustard.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use high-quality mayonnaise and mustard. Look for brands that use real eggs and vinegar, rather than vegetable oil and sugar.
- If you don't have any celery or onion on hand, you can substitute chopped carrots or bell pepper.
- To make a creamy macaroni salad, add 1/2 cup of sour cream or Greek yogurt to the dressing.
- For a tangy macaroni salad, add 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to the dressing.
- If you're making macaroni salad ahead of time, be sure to chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the salad to firm up.
