A fun and easy weeknight dinner featuring hot dogs, chili, cheese, and a flaky crescent roll crust. Perfect for a casual family meal or a kid-friendly gathering.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Open the crescent roll dough and unroll it into the prepared baking dish. Press the seams together to create a solid crust across the bottom of the dish.
Spread the canned chili evenly over the crescent roll crust.
Arrange the hot dogs on top of the chili, spacing them evenly.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crescent roll crust is golden brown and the hot dogs are heated through.
Remove from oven and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese. Return to the oven for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from oven and let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Drizzle with mustard and ketchup and top with diced onion, if desired.
Nutrition per serving (280g)
For a spicier chili cheese dog bake, add a dash of hot sauce to the chili or use pepper jack cheese.
If using frozen hot dogs, thaw them completely before adding them to the bake.
You can pre-cook the hot dogs on the stovetop or grill for a more charred flavor.
For a vegetarian version, use plant-based hot dogs and vegetarian chili.
Add other toppings after baking like sour cream, salsa, or jalapenos.
