School starts 2 weeks from tomorrow. I love my life of leisure in the summer. Sleeping in, lounging by the pool all day, drinking with my friends all night. Oh, wait, I'm a Mom. My summer schedule is just as jam packed as my school schedule.
With a rising senior and school deadlines looming, I'm already in a school state of mind. However, my school habits - crock pot meals, weekly trips to the supermarket - aren't quite there yet. So, yet again I'm scrambling to make something for my kids for lunch (bread was moldy - darn humidity - so PBJ was out).
Thank goodness for hotdogs! Say what you like about wieners, you have to admit that they're a quick easy source of protein. If I'm buying plain ole hotdogs, I normally choose turkey dogs. Less fat and the kids can't tell the difference.
With no bread products in sight today, I searched though my cabinet for corn muffin mix. Yep, cheap Jiffy Corn muffin mix. This cheap mix should be in everyones pantry. It sure comes in handy. Today I'm using it to create Corndogs in a Cup. Here's the recipe:
Corndogs in a Cup
1 box Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
4 hotdogs, cut into bite sized pieces
Preheat oven to 400. Mix muffin mix, egg, and milk until combined. Stir in hot dog pieces. Grease heavily 12 muffin cups or line cups with cupcake liners. Fill each cup about 1/2 way with corn muffin mixture. Bake at 400 for 18-20 minutes.
