I sprayed the bottom of a glass dish with Pam. Put a little chili sauce on the bottom of the pan, wrapped cheap hotdogs in flour tortillas, added to the pan, covered with cheap chili with no beans (hot dog chili – I get at Walmart for .50 a can – I used two cans), covered with chili sauce and shredded cheese and then baked. They were a hit.

I have also added homemade enchilada sauce to the canned chili to make it go further.

Cheap, quick, hearty and good!!!  Can’t get better than that… especially on a low budget week!!!

Enjoy~
