Nancy's Kitchen - Tried and Tested Recipes
Chili Cheese Dog Casserole
Chili Cheese Dog Casserole
I made these for my
Christmas Eve family dinner thinking they might be
something the grandkids would like as opposed to the
more traditional foods I had prepared. Turned out
everyone liked them and wanted more!
Wrap a
wiener into a flour tortilla. I trimmed my tortillas to
a square for neater wrapping but would not be necessary.
Use eight or ten tortillas according to number of
wieners in your brand package.
In a glass baking
dish spread 1 can of chili with beans or without as per
your preference. Place the wrapped hotdogs seam side
down and cover with another can of chili. Top with two
cups of shredded cheese of your choice. I used cheddar.
Cover with aluminum foil and bake 30 minutes at 350º or
until wieners are hot and cheese is melted. Serve with
sides of diced onion, sour cream, mustard. etc.
I
actually choose not to use canned chili and opted to
brown a pound of hamburger meat and mix it with a can of
hot dog chili sauce. I spiced it a bit with garlic
powder and chili powder. Easy on the salt and pepper as
the cheese and hot dogs are salty. This was the
consistency of a sloppy joe mixture which is a good
thing so the tortillas do not get soggy. If you like,
make it more spicy using some chiles or jalapenos. In
order not to be wasteful. I used the trimmed tortilla
strips and baked them with butter, cinnamon and sugar
for a little bonus treat.
