    In a large bowl, mix all ingredients above with spaghetti sauce, saving a small handful of the cheese cubes and hot dogs. Then pour into a greased cake pan or casserole dish. (try not to use deep casserole dishes, the cheese won't melt well) Sprinkle the handful of cheese and hotdogs on top then layer the top with american cheese slices. Bake for 45 minutes.

  • Step 4
    This is a very cheesy recipe for the cheese lovers!! You may cut back on the cheese if it is too much for you. Also, if you dont have Smith's Hot Dog brands, any brand will do. That is the one we found works the best (its a Pennylvania brand) so you might not have them.
