Fun Fall Favorite

Dogs in a blanket and tater tots.

Dude. Do I even need to write more?

Go ahead, be a kid again!

Dogs in a Blanket
(Makes 4)
1 can refrigerator crescent rolls
4 hot dogs (your choice! Tofu, turkey, beef, pork, whatever)

Follow baking directions on can. For a perfect wrap and roll, look for the seam that opens the rolls out into a flat rectangle. There will also be one that separates the whole thing into two halves, top and bottom. Do not separate into triangles, rather, press seams together with fingers to then have 4 rectangles. Wrap each hot-dog burrito style in a crescent roll dough rectangle. Put seam side down in a cookie sheet lined with parchment.  Fill other 3/4 of sheet with tater tots and bake all together. (Split the temperature difference if there is one between your roll and tots directions.) Cook the dogs in a blanket until golden brown. Tots might need to stay in the oven a bit longer.

Serve with a side of fresh fruit and some milk for a complete meal!

Don't forget ketchup and mustard to dip in. This is a great dinner for kids of all ages!

Ps - reheats well the next day!
