Mexican Mummy Dogs

These delicious mummy dogs are easier, quicker to make, and much lower in fat than using crescent rolls!

This recipe contains hot dogs (all beef), tortillas (flour), refried beans, butter, salsa, skewers

8 - 16 Servings

Prep time: 30 min

Cook time: 20 min

Ingredients:

• 8 whole all-beef hot dogs
• 1 pkg(s) extra-large burrito size soft flour tortillas (or more of smaller ones) or 4-6 very fresh corn torillas
• 1/2 cup(s) canned refried beans
• 2 tbsp. butter
• 8 oz. salsa
• 8 whole "6-inch" wooden skewers (optional)

Instructions:

• 1. Lay out a tortilla and spread refried beans all over one side in a thin layer.
• 2. Use a pizza cutter to cut tortilla in thin strips to make the “bandages”.
• 3. Pick up a strip and press on the hot dog, bean side down and wind it around like a mummy, pressing the beany side onto the hot dog. Repeat with other hot dogs. Don’t worry if they are slightly messy. When they brown, you won’t really notice it.
• 4. Heat butter in a non-stick skillet and brown hot dogs on all sides until crisp, turning gently. (If a piece of bandage comes loose, use a little bit of beans to stick it back down, like glue)
• 5. Carefully insert a wooden skewer into one end.
• 6. Serve mummy dogs with salsa or warm nacho cheese dip.
