Loaded Bacon-Wrapped Hot Dogs
Loaded Bacon-Wrapped Hot Dogs
Prep: 10 minutes
Cook: 15 minutes
Ingredients
4 hot dogs with about 40 calories and 1g fat or less each
4 slices turkey bacon or center-cut bacon
1 cup sliced onion
1 cup sliced red bell pepper
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and sliced into strips (not rings)
2 tbsp. light mayonnaise
4 light hot dog buns (80 calories each)
4 tsp. yellow mustard
Directions
Carefully break 4 toothpicks in half. Wrap each hot dog in a slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick half at each end. Set aside.
Bring a large skillet or grill pan sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat on the stove.
Add onion, bell pepper, and jalapeño pepper and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Remove from the skillet/pan and set aside.
Remove the skillet/pan from heat, re-spray, and bring to medium heat. Add bacon-wrapped hot dogs and cook until bacon is crisp and fully cooked and hot dogs are heated through, about 6 minutes, rotating the hot dogs several times to evenly cook the bacon. Set aside.
Evenly spread mayo inside the buns. Remove toothpicks from the hot dogs and place a bacon-wrapped dog in each bun. Top each dog with 1 tsp. of mustard.
Evenly distribute veggie mixture among the dogs. Eat up!
