Kick-Off Veggie Chili Dogs
These dogs are an easy snack to make that will please everyone. These particular dogs are made vegetarian style, but you can easily swap the veggie dogs for turkey or chicken dogs (which are a lot lower in fat than regular hot dogs). If you want to swap the vegetarian ground round for meat, make sure you choose an extra lean ground chicken, turkey or beef to keep calories low.
