"No Labor" Grilled Dogs with Chips

"No Labor" Grilled Dogs with Chips

Happy Labor Day Everyone!
I hope you're having a great Labor Day! I am back in Troy now, and Dusty and I decided we would take a break from studying to enjoy a little bit of this holiday. And what else is there to do on Labor Day other than grill out?! We decided to do hot dogs and chips....the lazy man's healthy way. By this I mean, we at store bought chips, I didn't make them myself (LOL). Here's what we did:

No-Labor Grilled Dogs with Chips
  • Take a Kosher, All Natural, or Organic hot dog and grill it to perfection. We used Hebrew National low fat wieners and grilled them for about 5 minutes or so until they were cooked through and had grill marks.
  • The last minute (or less) on the grill we through our 100% Whole Wheat buns on the grill to toast.
  • Once they come off the grill, add your favorite condiments like mustard, onions, and relish (remember to go heavy on the light condiments and light, if at all, on the added fats like mayo or slaw made with a store bought dressing).
  • Pair your dogs with a Baked Lays product or make your own chips by slicing potatoes in thin rounds and baking them at 375 until crisp).

What a Labor Day treat! Easy grilling, great tasting hot dogs and Baked Lays for a no fuss holiday meal. The best part is that you get to have fun grilling out and chowing down on a hot dog meal that is healthy for you!


Always remember, you can have fun, eat great, and stay healthy all at the same time! :)
