Cauliflower Stuffed Hotdog Recipe

Hot dogs are a favorite for many people and these cheesy mashed cauliflower dogs make a great appetizer, snack or even the main course.

These are best eaten when still warm but taste just fine cold as well. So make up a few for your next party or dinner. This is one of my favorite appetizer recipes to make.

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Cut hot dogs lengthwise in half without cutting all the way through.

7. Drain completely and pat dry if needed.
8. Add milk, sour cream and butter to the cooked cauliflower.

12. Sprinkle the remaining cheese evenly over the hot dogs.
13. Place into the oven and bake at 375 degrees for about 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbling slightly.
