Ingredients:

 

8 hot dog buns, torn into pieces

8 beef hot dogs, cut into round slices
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

1 lb. lean ground beef or turkey burger
1 (16oz) can Chili Beans
1 (8oz) can Tomato sauce
1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes
1 packet Taco seasoning

Directions:

 

Preheat oven to 350.

Cook ground beef until meat is browned and cooked through; drain.

 

Stir in chili beans, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, taco seasoning mix, and 1/4 c. of cheese.

 

Let simmer for a couple of minutes then remove from heat and set aside.

Spray a 9 x 13 in pan with Pam.

 

Lay the hot dog bun pieces across the bottom of the pan.

Layer the hot dog slices on top, covering the bun pieces.

Pour the Chili over the top of the hot dog slices and cover with remaining shredded cheese.

Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes, removing foil for the last 10 minutes.
