- 8 Chicken Sausages

- 1 Pepper (any colour)

- 340g Pasta

- 700g Tomato (& Basil if possible) Pasta Sauce

- 130g Grated Mozzarella

Method:

- Add the bell pepper to the skillet with the sausage and cook for 2 minutes to soften.

The Ultimate Sausage Hot Dog

What You'll Need:

For Caramelised Onions

- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 large onions (red or white), sliced
- Pinch of salt
- 2 tbsp soft brown sugar
- 1-2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

For Actual Hot Dog Roll

- Sausages (we like pork)
- Hot Dog Buns
- Your favourite Sauces

Method:

- Heat the oil in a large deep frying pan over a low heat.


- Add the onions with a generous pinch of salt and cook slowly for 30-40 mins. Stir occasionally to prevent them from sticking or burning until they become soft and golden. If the onions start to catch, add a splash of water to the pan and mix well.

- At the 30 minute mark you want to put your sausages on to cook as they will take about 15 minutes.


- Add the sugar and vinegar to give them a sweet, slightly sharp chutney flavour. Keep cooking on a low heat for another 5 mins, stirring occasionally until the mix is sticky, the sugar has dissolved and the vinegar has reduced.

- Add your sauce of choice to the bun

- Take your sausages off and put them in the bun

- Add your caramelised onions on top

Enjoy!

- Put 1 biscuit on each piece of foil and top with 2 chunks of chocolate and a marshmallow. Place the other biscuit on top and wrap each parcel tightly.
- Put the s’mores on your campfire and warm through for 2 mins on each side, so that the chocolate and marshmallows are just melted.

DRINK

Mojito Mocktail
