Slow Cooker 3-Ingredient Hot Dog Macaroni
This slow cooker hot dog macaroni is a simple, nostalgic dish that turns a few pantry staples into a sweet-and-savory comfort meal. As the dry elbow macaroni cooks alongside sliced hot dogs and ketchup, it absorbs moisture released from the hot dogs along with the tangy-sweet base of the sauce. The end result is tender pasta coated in a glossy, flavorful glaze—making it a quick, kid-friendly option for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
- 8 hot dogs, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
- 8 oz elbow macaroni (dry)
- 1 1/4 cups ketchup
Instructions
Step 1: Combine Ingredients
Lightly grease a 4–6 quart slow cooker. Add the dry macaroni and sliced hot dogs.
Tip: Cutting the hot dogs into even pieces helps them release moisture evenly as they cook, which is key for softening the pasta.
Step 2: Add the Sauce
Pour the ketchup over the mixture and stir until everything is well coated. It may seem thick, but don’t add liquid—the ingredients will produce steam as they cook.
