Take-out Tuesday, Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs with Pineapple Salsa

Are hot dogs part of your summer menu plans?

Elevate a simple dog by stuffing it with Pineapple Salsa and wrapping it in bacon

I cooked these in the oven, for a simple supper last week, but you can definitely put them on your grill

These hot dogs only take minutes to prepare, and cooking them on a parchment lined baking sheet makes clean up a breeze

You can precook your bacon a little to ensure it gets crispy

Put dogs on a toasted bun and cover with additional salsa

Such a tasty summer meal!

  • Saute onion in rendered bacon fat or in a little olive oil and butter over medium low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add pineapple and continue to cook on medium low for a few more minutes. Slice hot dogs in 1/2 vertically, leaving one side attached.
