Octopus Mac N Cheese Recipe

Octopus Mac N Cheese

From hottamale 17 years ago

My kids love this! If you want the mac n' cheese to become "seaweed" then just add a drop or two of green food coloring.

To make the Octopus:
Starting 1" down from the top of the hot dog, slice the dog into 8 strips to the bottom.
Cook the hotdogs in boiling water; approximately 5-7 minutes or until done.
As the hotdogs cook, the slices will curl forming the tentacles.
As the octopii are cooking, prepare macaroni & cheese according to package directions.
To Serve:
Add mustard eyes and ketchup mouth to make the face of the octopus.
Spoon mac n' cheese into a bowl and place octopus hotdog on top.

We used to cut the hot dogs all the way and boil for "worm sandwiches" on buns for Halloween. I like your idea SO MUCH better!! I just couldn't eat mine cuz they grossed me out, although the kids liked them. Your hot dog recipe is adorable!
