Most of us love hot dogs. I know I do. But they’re usually so unhealthy. That’s why I was so happy to discover a 97% fat free hot dog that’s low carb, gluten free and only 45 calories! They actually taste pretty good. Now take this skinny hot dog and wrap it in a healthier bacon….Amazingly good. Everything is better with bacon! Each has 75 calories and 3 grams of fat. Serve on a plate with mustard on the side for dipping, if desired. You can easily eat 2 or add to a bun and serve with your favorite toppings.
Ingredients
- 1 package Hebrew National 97% fat free beef hot dogs (7 hot dogs), see shopping tips
- 7 slices bacon, see shopping tips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with foil or parchment paper. Wrap bacon tightly around each hot dog. Place them on the lined cookie sheet.
- Bake 15-20 minutes or until bacon is thoroughly cooked and hot dogs are browned. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings. You can serve each in a bun, if desired.
Notes
Makes 7 hot dogs. Each serving 1 or 2 hot dogs.
