Chili cheese hotdogs are a favorite summer time meal in our household, super quick to throw together (my kind of meal) and everyone eats them. This is a fun take with baking them in the oven, a little more cooking time, but so worth it.
The buns get almost crusty, and the cheese and chili and condiments melt together perfectly. I can imagine these on a camping trip, just wrap them individually in foil and place on the pit or fire. Yum!!
Ingredients: 8 hotdogs (your favorite kind) , 8 hotdog buns, Mayo or Miracle Whip, mustard, relish, hotdog chili (canned or homemade hotdog chili), shredded colby or cheddar cheese, and diced onions, sweet little 5 year old helper hand (optional).
Coat the bun well with mayo or miracle whip, mustard and relish
Add hotdogs, chili and cheese and top with diced onions.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes until perfection.
Trust me, wait it out.
Serve with chips, pickles and coleslaw.
After you’ve eaten take that 5 year old helper hand for a sweet snuggle on the couch, after all I’m still his favorite!
