Grew up on these. I’m picky and have to have real potatoes but
instant can substitute.

potato boats

1 package of hotdogs
potatoes
butter
milk
salt and pepper
cheese (any)

cut potatoes, removing all bad spots and cook potatoes
(pealing is optional), when done enough to stick a fork in
easily, remove from heat and drain water. mash potatoes
with a mixer or by hand adding milk, butter, salt and pepper
to desired thickness and taste. sour cream can be added for
extra creaminess.

split hotdogs length wise and open up on a cookie sheet with
the outside up. broil hot dogs for a few minutes until the
start to brown and bubble. remove hotdogs and flip them
over so the inside is up. add mash potatoes on top of hotdogs.
sprinkle cheese on top.

broil until the cheese is melted.
