Husband & I were looking for a simple meal to grill out with....Found this recipe for dressing up a regular hot dog...and we loved it! Like another reviewer, we were ready with the jar salsa vs making it ourselves to simplify things....but, we actually didn't use it b/c the avacado guacamole was all we needed with a bit of shredded cheese and the crushed blue corn chips on top really added a nice texture dimension. We're thinking of making them for lunch today so our 18 yo son can try them...we think he will really like them! I made Barefoot Contessa's New Potato Salad to compliment the meal...always a good bet! These dogs are a perfect summer treat to share! Enjoy!

Incredibly light and Delicious, loved the idea of having nachos in a sancwich! efficient
I had some leftover cheese sauce from a cheese fondue and I put it on the nachos in the hotdog bun and toped it with the jalapenos and it was AMAZING

I made these for my teenage son who is a very picky eater and he loved them. We are not big fans of guacamole so we just made them without it. I think the chips on top give it a nice touch. My daughter doesn't eat beef so she made it with chicken sausage. It was delicious both ways!
