Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat the margarine in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the sliced hot dogs and diced onion to the skillet. Sauté until the onions are softened and the hot dogs are lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
  3. In a separate small pot, cook the frozen mixed vegetables according to package directions, or simmer in 1 1/2 cups of water until tender.
  4. Stir the stewed tomatoes into the skillet with the hot dogs and onions.
  5. Add the minute rice to the skillet, stirring to combine with the tomato mixture.
  6. Drain the cooked vegetables and add them to the skillet along with any remaining cooking water.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid, about 10-15 minutes.

Note

For a richer flavor, you can use butter instead of margarine.

If you prefer a thicker consistency, let the dish simmer uncovered for the last few minutes to evaporate excess liquid.

This dish pairs well with crusty bread or biscuits for dipping.

Feel free to add other seasonings like garlic powder, paprika, or dried herbs to enhance the flavor.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of water or broth.
