Moms Hot Dog Boats Recipes

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Return to the pot, and mash with the milk, butter, salt, and pepper.
• While the potatoes are boiling, place the hot dogs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then keep warm on low until the potatoes have been mashed.
• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
• Cut the hot dogs down the center, leaving the two halves attached (like a hot dog bun). Stuff the hot dogs with mashed potatoes and place into a baking dish. Place half a slice of cheese on top of each hot dog.
• Broil in the preheated oven until the cheese is bubbly and has melted, about 1 minute.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Leaving them attached, place the 8 hot dog buns in a 9 x 13-inch (22 x 33-cm) baking dish. Cut a rectangle in each hot dog bun, making sure to stay 1 centimeter from the edges. Push down on the bread cut-out to compact it tightly into the bottom of each bun, making sure to press down on the bottom edges as well. This will help create a larger space for the fillings and reduce mess.
• Mix the butter, garlic, and parsley in a small bowl, then brush the buns and their hollowed insides with the garlic butter. Bake for 5 minutes to toast the buns as well as help the sides of the buns firm up so they don't collapse under the weight of the fillings.
• Place a slice of cheddar cheese inside each bun, then spoon a bit of chili inside each one. Slide a hot dog snugly on top of the chili in each bun, then top with more chili.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is golden brown and the chili has started to brown. Top with fresh parsley, then slice the hot dog boats along their connected seams to serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Slice hot dogs length-wise but only half-way through so that they open up like a book.
• Fill open end with the potatoes - distribute evenly among the 5 hot dogs.
• Sprinkle tops evenly with cheese.
• Microwave for 1 minute or until wieners are hot and cheese is melted.
• That's it! Enjoy! I like it with mac and cheese as a side item.
