This dish is extremely kid-friendly, but it doesn’t have to be only for the little ones in the house. Grown ups can enjoy this dish without too much guilt if you choose all-natural or vegetarian frankfurters. Don’t just grab the hotdogs you used to at the grocery store. There are many health-conscious varieties of hotdogs to choose from now.

1/2 C. finely chopped onion
1/2 C. finely chopped bell pepper
1 (15 oz.) chunky tomato sauce (any kind your choice)
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
2 (16 oz.) cans Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
8 oz. diced, frankfurters or sausages
Cooking spray

Spray a large skillet with cooking spray and saute the onion and green pepper until both are softened.
Stir in tomato sauce and brown sugar.
Add beans and frankfurters. Mix well.
Lower the heat to a slow simmer, cover and continue to simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.
