Cheesy Green Chile Pigs in a Blanket

Yield: 9

Ingredients

1 can crescent roll sheets
5 hot dogs, cut in half
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 small can diced green chiles

Instructions

Preheat oven to whatever temperature the crescent roll sheet package says.
Spray a cookie sheet lightly with cooking spray.
Lay out the crescent roll sheet and cut into 9 equal sized squares.
Spread green chile and cheese over all the squares.
Place a hot dog in the center.
Roll up each hot dog in the crescent roll, placing the seam toward the cookie sheet.
Bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are crispy and brown.

Forrest randomly mentions that he loves pigs in a blanket – you know, hot dogs wrapped in some kind of bread (usually a crescent roll.) A few days ago, I thought I would make him and Jack some pigs in a blanket with a fun twist.

We’ve bought some hot dogs throughout the summer when we’ve had coupons, so I thought this was a good way to use them up. I used a package of Bar-S Premium Beef Franks for this recipe. Bar-S is usually pretty affordable, especially when you have a coupon, and they are available pretty much everywhere. Did you know they are the #1 selling franks in the United States?

I decided to add some diced green chiles and shredded cheddar cheese to this recipe. One of the foods that Colorado is more or less known for is green chile, so I thought it was kind of a fun shout out to the state we live in! Bar-S is having a fun “Cartin’ Round the Country” social campaign, celebrating regional hot dog renditions around the country, so I thought this was fitting for that!

Visit Bar-S Facebook for a chance to win products & prizes! They are seriously so easy to make. All you need is a can of crescent roll sheets, one small can of diced green chiles, cheddar cheese, and some hot dogs paired with a homemade sauce. From start to finish, this yummy lunch was done in less than 20 minutes.

This would be a great after-school snack to make! Jack and Forrest loved them, and they both asked for more! Forrest thought that they had great flavor, and that adding the cheese and green chile was a great idea.
