    Corn and chopped red sweet pepper add a colorful touch to hot dogs. Sprinkle crumbled bacon pieces on top for a bit of crunch.

    A quick and easy relish of chopped jalapeno peppers, jicama, tomatillos, and cilantro makes a spicy and delicious topping.

Fresh Veggies

    Grilled zucchini, red onion, and roasted red pepper makes a simple, flavorful topper for classic hot dogs.
