Pull-apart chili dogs recipe from Tierra Neubaum | FOX 7 Austin

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Reduced-fat cheese cuts calories while still providing creaminess.

sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: plain yogurt

Greek yogurt adds creaminess with fewer calories.

jalapeños

🥗Healthier: banana peppers

💰Cheaper: green bell peppers

Banana peppers provide a milder flavor at a lower cost.

hot dog buns

🥗Healthier: whole grain buns

💰Cheaper: regular bread

Whole grain buns offer more fiber, while regular bread is often less expensive.

Grill or boil the hot dogs until heated through, about 5-7 minutes.

Prepare the chili in a saucepan over medium heat until simmering, about 10 minutes.

Slice the onions finely and set aside.

Warm the hot dog buns in the oven for a few minutes until soft.

Place each hot dog in a bun.

Spoon chili generously over each hot dog.

Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the chili.

Add sliced onions, jalapeños, and any other desired toppings.

Drizzle with mustard and sour cream if using.

Serve immediately with a side of chips or fries.
