The Say Cheese! Dog Photo and Recipe Link Up

Considering there's still snow on the South Shore I'm guessing these two are chili cheese dogs.

Obie and Rexie enjoying the first 70˚ day since October (remember how nice it was until The Vortex dropped)

I shake my ears out the same way in the pool

Enjoy it boys, it's going to snow on Wednesday

Chili Cheese Dogs
from myrecipes

Ingredients:
2 Tbsp Vegetable Oil
1 Small Onion
1 Clove Garlic
2 tsp Chili Powder
1 8 oz Can Tomato Sauce
1 15 oz Can Red Kidney Beans (Pinto Beans work too)
8 Uncured Turkey or Chicken Hot Dogs (or a veggie dog perhaps?)
Whole Wheat Hot Dog Buns
1/2 Cup Shredded Low Fat Cheddar

Directions:
Warm oil in a medium skillet over medium heat, add onion and cook stirring until softened, about three minutes.
Stir in garlic and chili powder and sauté for 30 seconds.
Stir in tomato sauce and beans and bring to a simmer.
Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
Season with a pinch of salt (or not, check the Sodium content on the dogs and buns).
Make your favorite healthier dogs with lower fat hot dog buns (some listed on the previous link) and top with chili and low-fat cheese.

This Daily Meal link talks about some healthier (and unhealthy) store-bought hot dogs.

  2. I don't have a dog and I don't know a culinary recipe about "the dog" ...
    Can I publish another recipe to participate in your "party" or do I have to follow your theme exactly?

    1. You certainly don't need to have a dog or dog pphotos, Ella. I'm trying to post healthier recipes with cheese because I'm on a diet but it's really up to you.

    1. They were just some random dogs and there were quite a few of them because everyone up here is starved for warm weather and sunshine.

    1. They sure were. I'm getting frustrated trying to find "healthy" food at my usual grocery store. That recipe is forcing me to go to a health food store, ka ching.

    1. They were so sweet, especially the one that followed me around. Oh man, I am almost completely lost for something healthy and easy to make every day. I seem to be losing most of my weight in my shoulders, so nothing to brag about quite yet. I did just have some Brussel Sprouts as part of my "dessert" so it's happening, babi,

    1. Hey Kate, no working link on your profile, you should give people a better chance at reading your posts, they're very good. This combines my two favorite things, dogs and water.

    1. It's the place to be from a dog's eye view and less snakes or at least from what I've seen. No rattlers there anyway (again, from what I've seen).
