Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the hot dogs in a skillet and cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, for about 6 minutes or until they are browned and heated through.
While the hot dogs are cooking, carefully cut the sugar-free hot dog buns open, if not pre-sliced.
Spread a small amount of butter on the inside of each bun to add flavor and prevent sticking.
Place the buns on a baking sheet.
Once the hot dogs are cooked, place one hot dog inside each bun.
Top each hot dog with a slice of cheddar cheese.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 4 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
Drizzle each hot dog with 1 teaspoon of yellow mustard and 1 teaspoon of mayonnaise.
Sprinkle the chopped green onions over the top for extra flavor and garnish.
Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper according to taste.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low carb cheesy hot dogs!
