Lou McKee's Weenies

Best.Story.Ever. This recipe originally came from our Grandpa McKay's ex-girlfriend..previous to our grandmother. He apparently liked to go over to Lou's house when she made these. He liked them so much that when he married our grandmother, he asked her to make these throughout their 50 plus year marriage. Grandma was quite the trooper...she didn't even change the name. This was way back even before World War II so this is an oldie but a goodie. You can make these as healthy or unhealthy as you like...use turkey dogs, all beef dogs, real cheese, white bread, wheat bread, what have you. (For the record, I used low fat turkey dogs, 2% cheese and weight watchers wheat bread) Do yourself a favor..use the Kraft singles. Yes, they are plastic but they are delish on this. We are fans of dipping these into dijon mustard, ketchup and/or horseradish. The whole family gives these 5 stars.

Side Note: I served these along side a nice spinach salad with cranberries, crumbled bacon and toasted pine nuts all topped off with a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. YUM!

Ingredients:

Hot Dogs
Sliced Bread
Kraft Cheese singles
Toothpicks
(yeah, that's it, seriously)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

On each slice of bread, place a cheese single. Lay a hot dog on the diagonal. Simply roll the upper left hand corner and the lower right hand corner together and secure with a toothpick.

Bake until cheese is melted and bread is toasted...about 10 minutes.
