CABBAGE AND FRANKS

This speedy skillet dish is the simplest kind of cooking I know - just pour in a few tasty ingredients, stir them together until they're "closelikethis," and let them simmer until their flavors are perfectly blended.

Serves 4 (1 cup)

8 ounces Oscar Mayer or Healthy Choice reduced-fat frankfurters, diced
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 cups shredded cabbage
1 (10 3/4-ounce) can Healthy Request Cream of Mushroom Soup
2 cups hot cooked noodles, rinsed and drained
1/8 teaspoon black pepper

In a large skillet sprayed with butter-flavored cooking spray, sauté frankfurters and onion for 5 minutes. Stir in cabbage. Continue cooking for 6 to 8 minutes or until cabbage is tender, stirring often. Add mushroom soup, noodles, and black pepper. Mix well to combine. Lower heat and simmer for 10 minutes, or until mixture is heated through, stirring occasionally.

HINTS: 1. Usually 1 3/4 cups uncooked noodles cooks to about 2 cups.
2. Purchased coleslaw mix may be used in place of shredded cabbage.
