Slow Cooker 3-Ingredient Hot Dog Macaroni

This slow cooker hot dog macaroni is a simple, nostalgic dish that turns a few pantry staples into a sweet-and-savory comfort meal. As the dry elbow macaroni cooks alongside sliced hot dogs and ketchup, it absorbs moisture released from the hot dogs along with the tangy-sweet base of the sauce.
