Tortilla Dogs

I was really really pleasantly surprised how these tortilla dogs turned out. I wasn’t even planning on photographing them or posting about them, but ALL of my kids raved about them and that almost NEVER happens so I had to take a few quick shots and share!

These tortilla dogs would make a perfect and fun party appetizer done up with tooth pics and condiments as I’ve shown above, or they also make a great on-the-go lunch for kids (or hot dog loving adults).

I used the uncooked flour tortillas that you find in the refrigerated section of Costco. I have also seen these at a few major grocery stores now, so be on the lookout. There is nothing like a great fresh tortilla, and the pre-made ones are a great alternative to making tortillas from scratch.
