CHILI DOG LASAGNA



chili dog lasagna image

I just took a little of this and a little of that, and voila!

Provided by Jennifer Ellis

Categories     Other Main Dishes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pkg hot dogs
yellow mustard to taste
1 can(s) chili
5 flour tortillas
1 pkg chedder cheese

Steps:

  • 1. layer 1/4 of the can of chili on the bottom of a glass casserole dish ( I used my medium sized one)
  • 2. cut hotdogs lengthwise, then in half and layer, then squirt mustard to your taste (amount wise) over the hotdogs, then a layer of cheese, then a layer of tortilla's (I ripped them into pieces) Keep layering until you're out of ingredients or space, whichever comes first.
  • 3. Bake at 350 F. until bubbly and cheese is melted.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans in your lasagna for a more complex flavor and texture. Try using black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese. A blend of mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan is a classic choice, but you could also try using Monterey Jack, pepper Jack, or goat cheese.
  • Make sure to cook the lasagna until it is bubbly and the cheese is melted and golden brown. This will ensure that the lasagna is cooked through and that the flavors have had a chance to meld together.
  • Let the lasagna rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the lasagna to set and make it easier to cut.
  • Serve the lasagna with a side of garlic bread, salad, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Chili lasagna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a casual gathering. With its layers of pasta, cheese, beans, and chili, it is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give chili lasagna a try!
