Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
Slice the yellow onion and red bell pepper into thin strips. Mince the jalapeno if you prefer a spicy kick.
In a small bowl, prepare the avocado by cutting it in half, removing the pit, and scooping the flesh into the bowl. Mash it with a fork and season with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 4-5 minutes till they become soft and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
Grill the hot dog sausages on the preheated grill or grill pan, turning occasionally, until they are well cooked and have nice grill marks, about 6-8 minutes.
While the sausages are grilling, lightly toast the hot dog buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes until slightly crispy.
Assemble the hot dogs by placing a grilled sausage in each toasted bun.
Top each hot dog with the sautéed onions and peppers, then add a spoonful of mashed avocado and a sprinkle of minced jalapeno.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top, letting it melt slightly from the heat of the sausage.
Finish with a drizzle of ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise, as per your preference.
Serve the gourmet hot dogs immediately, accompanied by your favorite chips or sides.
