Instructions
- Cook the hot dogs according to the package instructions and keep them warm in a covered dish.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips until crispy. Remove from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess grease.

- Try using different types of cheese, such as pepper jack for a spicy kick!
- For a healthier option, use turkey bacon or omit the bacon altogether.
