Hot Dog Week – Sweet Heat Dog: Day 6 of 6, of the BEST (and easy) gourmet hot dog recipes! This sweet heat dog will conquer any caribbean craving with it’s mango salsa and sweet chili sauce toppings.
Sweet Heat Dog
Alright, we all know how much I love a Mexico vacation. There’s something about the caribbean that makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. Perhaps it’s the fresh coconut drinks, and the warm nights with an ocean breeze. So any chance that I can squeeze a little caribbean in my home here in the midwest… I do.
I’ll never forget the first time that I saw pre-made mango salsa in the grocery store. It was like we finally made it. Mango salsa!!? Now I don’t have to make it on my own, AND I get to feel a little tropical!? Deal.
For the last and final day of Hot Dog week, I’ve saved this one for last. The sweet heat dog. A hot dog topped with pre-made (or if you’re feeling adventurous, you can make your own) mango salsa, mixed with a sweet-chili sauce. The two combined offer a big bang for your tastebuds. Slap it on a dog, and you can pinch me.
This brings an end to Hot Dog week and now I hope you’re prepared and ready to host your own hot dog bar, with this crazy amount of topping ideas that we’ve covered all week. But just in case you missed the others, here are the quick links to see what you’ve missed…
The “BLT” (Bacon, Lettuce & Tomato)
Be sure to show me your photos of your hot dog bar if you host one for an event! I’d love to see how it turned out, and drool over your topping selections!
