Vegetarian Chili Dogs

By Jessica

Sometimes, even as a vegetarian, you just get a hankering for an ooey gooey chili dog. If I'm being honest here, I get that craving a lot but up until recently, I've never actually tried to fill it, I've just grabbed something else to eat and gone on about my day. Until yesterday, for the first time in I don't even know how long, I made myself a chili dog and it was GOOD. 

I was finally able to get my hands on some Field Roast sausages which I used for the "dog" portion of my chili dog. Though I would've loved to have found the frankfurter variety, the smoked apple sage sausage was tasty too. 

For the chili I turned Amy's medium chili which is a favorite around our house, even among the meat eaters. Topped with shredded cheese some and finely chopped red onion (not pictured), I chowed down before the cheese was even allowed to melt all the way and I know I'll be eating one for lunch again today. 

What's your favorite hot dog?

Oscar Mayer XXL beef hot dogs. They are hard to find, but they are hands down the best. They are big and juicy and most of the time you can't eat more than one. I love them with chili, cheese, and mustard. My husband loves to put kraut and brown mustard on them.

This looks delicious! I may need to make some soon. (I'm toying with going mostly vegetarian even after April.)
