50 15 65

Ingredients

21 frozen bread dough dinner rolls, thawed
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
3/4 teaspoon poppy seeds
3/4 teaspoon caraway seeds
3 tablespoons shredded Mexican cheese blend
1 package (16 ounces) miniature hot dogs
CHICAGO DOGS:
1/3 cup prepared mustard
1/3 cup sweet pickle relish
1/3 cup chopped sweet onion
1/3 cup chopped tomato
2 whole dill pickles, juilenned
BAVARIAN DOGS:
1 can (14 ounces) Bavarian sauerkraut, rinsed, drained and chopped
1 small apple, diced
1/3 cup chopped sweet onion
1/4 cup chopped celery
CHIHUAHUA DOGS:
1 cup salsa verde
1 can (8 ounces) unsweetened crushed pineapple, drained
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons chopped seeded jalapeno pepper
1 teaspoon grated lime peel

Directions

Cut each roll in half; roll each into an oblong shape. Arrange in two greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pans. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk egg and water; brush over rolls. Sprinkle a third of the buns with poppy seeds, another third with caraway seeds and the remaining buns with cheese. Bake at 350° for 14-16 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks to cool.
Meanwhile, place hot dogs in a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 12-14 minutes or until heated through.
For Chicago Dogs: Place a hot dog in a poppy seed bun. Top with a teaspoonful of mustard, relish, onion and tomato. Repeat. Top each with pickles.
For Bavarian Dogs: In a small bowl, combine the sauerkraut, apple, onion and celery. Place a hot dog in each caraway seed bun; top with sauerkraut mixture.
For Chihuahua Dogs: In a small bowl, combine the salsa, pineapple, cilantro, jalapeno and lime peel. Place a hot dog in each cheese bun; top with salsa mixture. Yield: 3-1/2 dozen.

Editor's Note: Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
