hot dogs + chips

The kid-choice week has begun. I let the kids design the menu and first up: hot dogs! HEB had Hebrew Nationals for only $2 a pack! It was a sign from God if there ever was one. I had treated the kids to bacon this morning and I used a little of the bacon grease in my cast iron skillet to heat up the dogs. Sinful, I know.

I used my pizza dough to make hot dog buns and then used the recipe in my daughter's cookbook to make chips. They turned out so very good. Half were kettle chip-like and the other half (the ones I didn't cut quite as thin) were a little more potato-y in the middle. They were devoured.

Picky daughter informed me that we "shouldn't buy hot dog buns anymore, they just aren't as good." I can't say I didn't smile.
