Weenie In A Beanie Wrap

I am forever trying to use up leftover Saturday beans. Chili is good, but sometimes tedious. Who doesn’t love beans and hotdogs? This is sort of a take on pigs in blanket but different. First, spice up the leftover beans with some red pepper flakes, cumin and garlic powder. Then make up a batch of garlic herb dough in the bread machine. Use your imagination ooh, doggie.

4 hotdogs

1 medium onion

1 cup baked beans

Bread dough

Ketchup

Mustard

Garlic Herb Dough

 

1 cup water (70º-80º)

2 Tbsp butter flavored Crisco

1 egg

3¼ cups flour

¼ cup sugar

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp basil

½ tsp oregano

½ tsp tarragon leaves

Select dough setting. When finished, divide dough in half and freeze half for another meal. Divide into 4 portions and roll out into 6x4 inch rectangles. Place one dog on each blanket; slit dogs down center, not cutting all the way through; fill with ketchup or mustard. Sprinkle with chopped onion, spoon ¼ cup beans over dog and roll up. Press seams together to seal. Place on greased baking dish and let rise for about 30 minutes. Bake 375º for about 20 minutes, until golden brown. Serve with a dill pickle and more ketchup or mustard if desired.
