Nitza Villapol’s Bacon Wrapped Hot Dog Recipe
The recipe for Nitza Villapol’s Cheeseburger is from her cookbook “Cocina Al Minuto”. The recipe is actually called “Perros Rellenos” which loosely translate to stuffed dogs.
Ingredients:
- 1 pack of hot dogs (we used Hebrew National)
- 8 Slices of Bacon
- 4 slices of Cheese (we used Velveeta)
- 1 Small can of Potato Sticks
- 8 Hot Dog Buns (we used Potato Bread)
- 32 Toothpicks
- Ketchup & Mustard
Directions:
Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Step 2: Cut the Hot dogs length wise about half way in.
Step 3: Slice each cheese slice into 4 equal long strands
Step 4: Stuff cheese into hot dog cavity
Step 5: Wrap each hot dog with one piece of bacon and use toothpicks to hold bacon in place
Step 6: Place wrapped hot dogs on a cookie sheet and into preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes
Step 7: Remove Toothpicks (important step)
Step 8: Place on Hot Dog Buns and top with potato sticks, ketchup and mustard.
