We are already getting some humid weather, not bad just enough to make it a little uncomfortable. On top of that I’m battling my Spring sinus problems. Happens every Spring and Winter like clockwork! Passes in about a week after the sinuses adjust. Because of that I really didn’t feel like putting a lot of effort into dinner so I made simple preparing a couple of Chili Dogs.
I used Ball Park White Smoked Turkey Franks that boiled. Just boiled in hot water for about 5 minutes and their done. Served them on Aunt Millie’s Light Whole Grain Buns. I topped them with Hormel Turkey With Beans. Comes in a can just heat it up in a small sauce pan and it’s ready. I also topped them with a bit of French’s Yellow Mustard and Kraft 2% Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese. For dessert later a Jello sugar Free Double Chocolate Pudding topped with Cool Whip Free Topping.

To assemble a Coney is easy; Bun, Frank, Mustard, Chili, Hot Sauce, and to top it all off Cheese! What is not to like!

Today’s Menu: Cincinnati Style Chili & Cheese Coneys w/ Oyster Crackers
Good news about my Dad, he should be released from rehab next Friday, barring any setbacks. So good news there! A lot less wear on all of us especially Mom as she’s up there every day.
On to dinner. Tonight was Cincinnati Style Chili & Cheese Coneys w/ Oyster Crackers! We all always enjoy Coneys! If you take a look at
pictures you’ll see a different Hot Dog, I tried a couple of the Buffalo Hot Dogs that was delivered yesterday from Buffalo Gal. More on those later. The ingredients I need tonight are: Ball Park Smoked White Turkey Franks, Skyline Chili, Kraft 2% Shredded Sharp Cheddar, French’s Yellow Mustard, Frank’s Red Hot Sauce (Optional), Chopped Onions (Optional), and Healthy Life Whole Grain Hot Dog Buns. These are the ingredients that make some excellent Cheese & Chili Coneys! A lot of people add Chopped Onions but I’ve never been a fan of that. I do like adding Hot Sauce to the Dog though, I use Frank’s Red Hot Sauce.
Yesterday my Buffalo Gal order was delivered so I prepared a couple of the Buffalo Hot Dogs so we could sample them also. I liked them, their very lean as all bison meat is.The taste reminded me more a Brat or Mett than a Hot Dog. I’m saving them for lunch tomorrow. Very quickly just to tell you how to assemble this masterpiece of the Cheese & Chili Coney World it’s: Spread the Hot Dog Bun, Lay your Hot Dog in the Bun, top with Yellow Mustard, add the Chili, top it with Red Hot Sauce (Optional), add the Chopped Onions (Optional), top everything with Kraft 2% Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese, you’re ready to eat! For dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding.

Today’s Menu: Chili Dogs and Jalapeno Bottle Caps
It’s Sunday and a full day of football and a big Sunday night Football game for the hometown Cincinnati Bengals! So what better than to fix a tailgate meal for dinner. i used to tailgate before all the Bengal games years ago but being in a wheelchair takes a little fun out of it so I catch all the games at home sweet home. But I can still fix some of the foods we used to prepare for the tailgate parties. For dinner I prepared Chili Dogs and Jalapeno Bottle Caps.
For the Chili Dogs I used Ball Park Smoked White Turkey Franks. These are my favorite Turkey Dogs. Low cal, low carb, and great tasting! I left the item description at the end of the post. I served it on a Healthy Life Whole Grain Bun and topped it with a splash of French’s Yellow Mustard, Hormel Turkey Chili with Beans, and Kraft 2% Shredded Sharp Cheese. Ahh these are just too good!
I also prepared a batch of Jalapeno Bottle Caps. If you’re looking for a unique delicious appetizer look no further! These are addicting once you start eating them. I’ve left the full recipe at the end of the post. Just to tell you a bit about them, you slice your Jalapenos into slices about the size of bottle caps and dip them in a beer batter and deep fry until browned. You do have to cut the seeds out of Jalapenos though. They come out flat – out delicious! A little heat but they actually come out with almost a sweet taste. You serve with a side of Bleu Cheese dressing, I used Litehouse Lite Bleu Cheese Dressing and Dip ( 80 calories and 3 carbs). Your going to love these! For dessert later a Blue Bunny Frozen Chocolate/Vanilla Swirl Yogurt Bar.

For the Chili I used a can of Skyline Chili, only 40 calories and 1 carb per serving and I used a 1/2 serving on each Frank.
