Ingredients

  • 12 oz package King's Hawaiian Rolls or package of King's Hawaiian Hot Dog Buns
  • 6 hot dogs of choice
  • 2 Tbsp butter melted
  • 1 avocado pitted and sliced
  • 1 ½ cup arugula
  • 8 oz cherry tomatoes halved
  • 6 oz package French's French Fried Onions as needed
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp basil pesto store-bought or homemade

Instructions

  • If using rolls, tear bread into segments of 2 or 3 rolls depending on the length of your hot dog.  Slice bread rolls ⅔'s through to create a divot for the hot dog.  Lightly brush bread with melted butter.  Place in broiler for a couple seconds or let toast on the grill.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat.  Place hot dogs on grill.  Cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until heated through.
  • While the hot dogs are heating up, prepare toppings.
  • To make pesto mayo, combine mayonnaise and basil pesto in a small bowl.  Stir until pesto is evenly distributed.  Transfer to a squeeze bottle for easy serving.
  • To serve, place heated hot dog on toasted bread bun.  Place sliced avocado on one side of the hot dog.  Place arugula on the other side.  Add sliced tomatoes on top of hot dog.  Drizzle pesto mayo over all the ingredients.  Over the mayo, sprinkle fried onions.  Enjoy immediately.

Notes

Dog Haus serves the Sooo Cali with diced tomatoes and basil aioli.  I substituted with cherry tomatoes and pesto mayo.
