Chili Dog Casserole

This was so easy and so family friendly! The only change I made was to remove the foil for the last few minutes of cooking time to crisp up the top slightly. It would also be fun to experiment with different toppings, like chopped red onion and sour cream.

Really good definitely worth it

I REALLY enjoy preparing and serving this dish. First time I made it was around 2003. I’ve won two summertime potluck contests with it! My family and friends all have nothing but the best compliments when I make it. I’ve been vegetarian since 2011, so use veggie hot dogs and still vegetarian and carnivores both come for seconds. This is a recipe I will always enjoy serving, no matter the season. It’s right up there with my Tater Tot Casserole, but even better! I especially appreciate how easy it is to make and how delicious it is, plus leftovers are so good!Ps. I dress the hot dog with ketchup and mustard inside the tortillas. Then top the finished product with sour cream just before serving for a little extra deliciousness!

9.3.21 I was sitting out on the porch, and I didn’t hear the timer go off so, unfortunately, I did overcook a bit. Not to worry, this was still surprisingly good! I had chili in the freezer, so I used that instead of canned chili (sorry, wouldn’t go there). Interesting, because in spite of cooking longer than it should have, the hot dog still was just warm, not hot. Next time, I think I’ll cover the dish with foil for 20 minutes, then remove the cover for the last 10 minutes for the cheese to melt. I garnished with TJ’s hot and sweet peppers and served with Mexican Street Vendor Style Corn Salad and Instant Pot® Refried Beans, both recipes from this site. It just doesn’t get much easier than this for a tasty Friday night comfort food meal, and I wouldn’t hesitate to make this again.

We added more Chili and cheese for our liking! Turned out pretty good. Definitely an easy weeknight meal in a pinch! We will for sure make it again!!

This recipe is great! Easy and the family liked it for a busy day go to recipe. Will definitely make again!

I did make it and the kids loved it. I tried people’s ideas about heating up the tortillas and dogs. I also added sautéed onions and mustard in the tortillas. I found that the tortillas were a little to mushy for my taste. I think I will try again but maybe crisp the tortillas up a little.
