What Can I Make with HOT DOGS?
I don’t eat much meat, and hadn’t eaten hot dogs for probably 10 years. Last week, my husband bought some Turkey Dogs from the grocery store that I really like. The kids love them, too.
I tried to get creative with them, but I’m just not coming up with any recipes or ideas other than slapping the hot dogs onto a bun and putting ketchup and mustard on it.
Any creative moms out there have tips for me? What can I make with HOT DOGS?

Definitely Pigs in a Blanket… Oh I just loved these growing up and will begin with my girls when they get a little bit bigger.
2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated quick crescent dinner rolls
2 tablespoons mustard
1 (16-ounce) hotdogs
Ketchup, mustard, or prepared horseradish
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Working with one package of rolls at a time, separate dough into 8 triangles. Cut each triangle into thirds and spread with mustard. Place one hotdog on widest end of triangle and roll up tightly. Place on ungreased cookie sheet, point side down. Repeat with remaining dough and franks.
2. Bake 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve warm with ketchup or mustard.

You can make the hot dogs and flat noodles.
Cut up the hot dogs and mix together with noodles.
You can either put spices of your choice in it or
put ketchup on it.

One of my kids favorites is tempura hot dogs. We buy tempura batter, then coat the cut up hot dogs and fry. It’s been a favorite here for many years.

I LOVE Turkey Dog!!! What I do is cut them up in little pieces, and add them into your Fry Rice dish.

Make your own corn dogs
Fix a thin cornbread batter (by adding a little extra milk). Dip the hot dogs in them and fry or bake in the oven.
If you’d like you can even add a popsicle stick in one end of the hot dog.

Here’s a thought: Why not buy the Pillsbury Croissant rolls and use them as a bun for your hot dog? Or you can take the croissant dough, lay it out in a square; flatten it with a rolling pin, then cut up the dogs and make “pigs in a blanket.”

My favorite things when i was a kid was mac and cheese with hod dogs on a bun. So what I do now is make the mac and cheese then slice hotdogs then brown them in a pan a lil. Then put it together. My nieces and nephews love it.

Pizza dogs
Place hot dog in bun. Cut 3 slices of pepperoni in half and lay 1/2 pc. on each side of hotdog the length of the bun. Squeeze pizza sauce over hot dog, top with mozzarella or provolone cheese. Heat in microwave until hot dog is hot and cheese is melted. (About 40 seconds)

My kids love hot dogs and spaghetti. Just add some slices of hot dog to your tomato sauce and pour it over the cooked noodles. Yummy

[...] Once a month we get together with 5 other families that we’ve known since our kids were tiny. By now each of us has quite a few more kids and we have a nice cowd going. We meet at a local park and bring a picnic. This month’s theme for the food was hot dogs. Of course we grilled some of them and served them in buns, but I was suprised at all the other creative hot dog recipes everyone was coming up with. We had hot dog salad, macaroni and cheese with hot dogs and even a dessert hot dog made with hot dog buns, bananas and peanut butter. Yummy!!! [...]
