Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs

These bacon wrapped hot dogs are a cinch to make and they can be made outside on the grill, stove top grill, or in the oven under the broiler. You can serve these bacon beauties with mustard, ketchup, melted cheese, onion, jalapenos, pico de gallo, relish or anything your little low carb heart desires! They're very tasty, the combination of the crispy, salty bacon and the juicy beef hot dog make for a snack or entree that you'll love and will fill you right up! They're also very portable, you can take them with you to work and reheat, add them to your kids lunchbox or bento box, or even eat them for breakfast on the road. Enjoy!





Ingredients:

6 All beef hot dogs I used Hebrew National 1 carb per hot dog and no added sugars
6 strips of bacon (I used center cut)


Directions:

1. Wrap the bacon around the hot dogs, stretching as you wrap. The more stretched out the bacon is on the dog the better it will stay on and not unroll while you cook it.
2. Grill the hot dogs for 10-12 minutes or until the bacon is cooked and crispy. OR turn the broiler in the oven on high and broil the hot dogs for 4 minutes per side until done.

Simple! Each hot dog comes out to 1 Net carb if you use the Hebrew National brand. If not, then count the carbs that the hot dogs you use have because the bacon has no carbs. Of course try to get the bacon with no added or reduced sugar.
