CHICAGO DOG SALAD
Eat well, eat more! I cut out the bun so I can have more dogs and veggies with less guilt. Chicago-style dogs are my favorites, with pickles, tomatoes, onions, mustard, and slaw on top; this salad reverses the order and piles the veggies up high underneath the dogs.

HOT DOG SALAD
In honor of National Hot Dog Month(July) I decided to make this up. It's pretty tasty, but definitely on the strange side. Might be a good way to get the kids to eat salad. Make sure not to use delicate lettuce for this salad.

Tips:
- Choose ripe and juicy tomatoes: This will ensure that your salad is flavorful and refreshing.
- Use fresh herbs: Herbs like basil, parsley, and chives add a burst of flavor to the salad. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less since they are more concentrated.
- Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. Too much dressing can weigh down the salad and make it soggy.
- Serve the salad immediately: Puppy dog salad is best when served fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store the dressing and salad separately and assemble just before serving.
