OMG! My whole family loved this. And they are some picky eaters! Very easy, rich and smelled so good. We had it with a salad and crusty french bread.

This was excellent, and I only had chicken hot dogs available at the time. Next time I'll try all beef and see how they work. But it's a great recipe either way.

This wasn't too bad but it might have been better if I hadn't made it healthier. I used turkey kielbasa and 2% Velveeta and also added more vegs (carrots, mushrooms, chives). It just seemed kind of bland to me. I may try it again and spice it up a little bit b/c I like the ingredients themselves. Maybe it would be good with hamburger?

Outstanding! Make sure to cut up the little smokies before adding them though.

This is a tasty meal. I used a package of lil smokies and sliced them in thirds. Was very good.

Was very good and easy to make! This recipe was also inexpensive to make, we usually have most of these ingredients at our house so it was an easy variation to change things up a bit!

OMG my boyfriend and his son love this. They call it MAN SOUP. If you think about it, it really is exactly what guys like; meat, potatoes, and cheese. I use beef kelbasa. I also cook the kelbasa before adding it just so that it can get alittle crunch on it. It adds some texture to the meal. They always want this on Sunday, it's Football Food.
