Summer is here and this is a perfect recipe for a quick lunch or dinner. My mom has been making this recipe since the 1970s when I was a little girl, and I’ve always loved them since then. Now as a mom I enjoy making them for my family. This is definitely a kid friendly recipe to try this summer. And don’t be afraid to have your kids help you make them. Kids love the fact that they taste like a cross between a grilled cheese sandwich and a hot dog on a bun; two of their favorite meals. Pigs in a blanket pairs perfectly with a bowl of tomato soup. So let’s get out the ingredients and make this easy summertime meal.
You will need one package of 8 hot dogs, 8 slices of American cheese, 8 slices of bread, and enough soft butter for one side of each piece of bread.
First spread the butter on one side of each piece of bread and place it buttered side down on a cookie sheet lined with foil.
Now place one slice of cheese on each piece of bread.
Now place a hot dog on each slice of bread.
Pull each side of the bread up and secure it with a toothpick.
Bake them in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.
Let them cool for a few minutes and serve with ketchup and your favorite soup. The kids and adults will love this quick summertime favorite.
