Chili Cheese Dog Stuffed Bread

Directions

1. Preheat oven or grill to 350°F. Either allow beef franks to come to room temperature or grill them (optional).

2. Using a sharp knife slice a “v” shape lengthwise on the top of the French baguettes. With your hand, remove the bread inside to create a boat.

3. Place baguettes on a lined baking sheet. Spoon half of the chili on the inside bottom of each baguette. Layer 4 slices of cheddar cheese lengthwise, then place 4 beef franks lengthwise in each. Top each beef frank with half a slice of cheese and more chili.

4. Bake, or grill with lid closed, for 15 minutes until cheese is melted, bread is crispy and franks are heated through. Slice and serve with more chili.
