Puppy Dog Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Bake the potato puffs as the label directs. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon celery salt.
• Meanwhile, whisk the vinegar and mustard in a large bowl. Whisk in 3 tablespoons vegetable oil until smooth. Add the lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes and sliced pepperoncini; season with celery salt to taste. Toss to combine.
• Slice the hot dogs lengthwise about three-quarters of the way through; open like a book. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the hot dogs cut-side down. Cook until browned and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, about 2 minutes.
• Divide the salad among plates; top each with a hot dog. Drizzle some mustard on the hot dogs, then top with the onion and relish. Add the potato puffs and whole pepperoncini.

Steps:

• In the bottom of a large bowl, combine mustard, vinegar, sugar, and about 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add the onions, cabbage, romaine, tomatoes, and pickles and toss the salad. Season with salt and pepper, adjust seasonings, and reserve.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add in remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (1 turn of the pan) then arrange the sliced dogs in a single layer. Sear them a couple of minutes on each side. Remove to paper towels to drain.
• Mound up the salad on plates, top with seared dogs, and serve.

Steps:

• Cook macaroni according to package directions, just until tender.
• Drain and rinse well with cold water.
• Meanwhile, cook hot dogs as desired- grill'em, boil'em or pan-fry; cool enough to handle, then slice into circles.
• If small children will be eating this, cut the circles in halves or quarters to avoid choking hazards.
• Combine mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar and salt & pepper in small bowl.
• Place hot dogs and pasta in large bowl and add remaining ingredients.
• Pour dressing over and toss gently with two spoons until all the bits are coated with dressing.
• Chill for two hours or longer in refrigerator before serving.
