10 Twists on Hot Dogs

Now that I've found a no-fail bread recipe using the 65 degrees method, hot-dogs are a regular menu item for dinner. But the boys are complaining my hot-dogs are boring as I usually always serve them either Coney Island style or load them up with classic ketchup and mustard.

Found these 10 cool combos from Everyday with Rachel while googling ideas to spice up my dogs.

Enjoy!
