Worms in Dirt

Everyday hot dogs and black beans give the appearance of worms in dirt in this Halloween-centric recipe. Martha displayed this fun dish on a special Monster Buffet during her Halloween Monster Bash with Jimmy Fallon.

- 8 hot dogs, sliced lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick strips
- 2 (15-ounce) cans black beans, drained and chopped

Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer; add hot dogs and simmer until they begin to curl; drain.
Place black beans in a serving bowl and top with curled hot dogs, gently tucking them into the beans to give the appearance of worms in dirt; serve immediately.
