I pushed this recipe towards the end of the week because even though I chose it, I was having second thoughts. When I'm being smart, I remember to look up a recipe online before copying it out of the cookbook so I can cut and paste instead and when I did a search on this recipe, it came up quite a bit so that gave me some confidence.

I don't know what I was afraid of because I love chili dogs and I love salsa and I love corn tortillas and I love cheese. This was great. Yes, it's a bit heavy but I used lite hot dogs and 2% cheddar and we just had a salad with it so really, it wasn't that heavy.

Blast From The Past: A&W Coney Island Chili Dog Sauce from March 2006. That's my favorite chili recipe (for hot dogs) but I used Bush's chili for this.
