We love Hawaii. The trips our family has taken there have all been fantastic.
I especially love taking advantage of all of the fresh tropical fruit that is available there. I have never tasted such incredible pineapple in my life. ** The original Dole plantation is a must visit! **
I think hot dogs get a bad rap. There is something so comforting in the simplicity of a hot dog that has been cooked to perfection.
They can be eaten in so many different ways too. Sometimes I want nothing more than a basic hot dog with ketchup and mustard. Our family has also tried all kinds of variations, like Chicago and New York style, a Coney Island hot dog, and a Mexican version.
Of course, our chili dogs are always delicious too. Today I want to share yet another version with you.
