1 lb. spaghetti noodles
1 lb. Italian tomato sauce (sweet and very smooth in texture)
8 ounces tomato paste
2 tablespoons minced onion
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons oil
1 lb. ground pork
½ cup minced carrots and red peppers
2 cups diced or thinly sliced hot dogs
1 cup water
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon seasoning mix
7 ounces evaporated milk
grated cheese for topping (processed cheese similar to Velveeta)

Cook the noodles according to package directions. Set aside. Place the garlic, onion, and oil in a large saucepan or skillet. Saute for 3-4 minutes or until soft and fragrant. Add the ground pork and brown the meat until it’s completely cooked. Add the minced vegetables and hot dog pieces and stir to combine. Add the water and allow the mixture to simmer for 10-15 minutes. Add the tomato sauce and tomato paste to the meat and continue to simmer the mixture for another 10-15 minutes. Add the evaporated milk and salt and stir until incorporated. Combine the noodles and the sauce in a large pot or mixing bowl. Top with grated cheese.
