Midweek Menu #60 - Chili Dogs

Four family favorite recipes that are sure to make you smile! This week, Midweek Menu is pulling out all the stops with chili dogs, a classic pot luck salad, crispy french fries with homemade dipping sauce and a cool dessert that can’t be missed. It’s time to make memories around the supper table!

I have to admit that this week’s menu has me a bit giddy. It’s like all my favorite summer recipes have come together for one perfect meal. These recipes are so simple and over time have taken their rightful place as some of summer’s most popular food. Why enjoy these yummy dishes only in six months of the year? I’m claiming this menu as one to make all year long!

I’m not gonna lie, I do love a good hot dog, cooked on the grill and when it’s loaded with this chili, well, y’all it’s over the top GOOD. I just had to add a salad to the menu and broccoli salad was an obvious choice. It’s been served at most every church social, pot luck and covered dish supper since I don’t know when. It’s crunchy, full of fresh veggies and fruit along with just a hint of sweetness. Of course, with chili dogs, you’ve got to have some fries. These Parmesan french fries made in the air fryer are so crispy and just like what you’d get at the ball park. Add in some homemade dipping sauce and you’ve got a match made in heaven. Since there’s always room for dessert, I’ve included a retro recipe that’s never gone out of style. Lemon Icebox Pie is refreshing and has the perfect blend of cream and citrus it’s a brilliant way to end a meal. Now…it’s time to get cooking!
