Bacon Chili Dog Burrito

Bacon Chili Dog Burrito – Everything you love about a chili dog wrapped in a toasty tortilla – with BACON!

Yum



I know this isn’t the healthiest recipe I’ve posted. I guess I should feel a little bit bad about the amount of calories that are presumably in this meal. The thing is, I don’t. It’s just THAT good. I’m sorry. Well, I’m sorry for not being sorry. Does that make sense? Who cares.

The other night I walked in as my husband was watching Diner’s, Drive-In’s and Dives (Triple D to those who watch all the time) and I saw something that looked ridiculously good and immediately said “hit record”. When I watched it back, things looked super good EXCEPT they used ketchup and mustard and all kinds of things that I categorize as “gross condiments”. I knew I could work around the condiment issue and I immediately warned the husband “We are having this for dinner this week”.

My version is a lot simpler than the version we saw on TV, but that’s why I like mine better. These come together quickly and they are certainly kid friendly. I used all beef hot dogs, thick cut bacon, shredded cheddar jack cheese and gasp, canned chili! This is quite possibly the only time I’ve ever used canned chili. Or if I have, it couldn’t be more than one other time. I wanted to make these right away and didn’t have the time to make homemade, so no judgment. This would be a great way to use up your leftover chili though.

Since we were already being bad with this “burrito”, I served curly fries on the side. I mean, if I’m going down this road, I might as well go all in, right? I’ll make up for it tomorrow by eating something delicious and healthy like my Roasted Vegetable Salad or Grilled Chicken w/ Blueberry & Goat Cheese Salad. Everything in moderation, right?
