Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces low-carb hot dog buns
- 4 pieces all-beef hot dogs
- 1 large avocado
- 8 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 8 leaves fresh basil leaves
- 0.5 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Dice it into small cubes and set it aside.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and finely chop the red onion. Place both in a small bowl.
In the bowl with tomatoes and onions, add the diced avocado and fresh basil leaves. Gently mix to combine.
Add 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, black pepper, and sea salt to the avocado mixture. Toss all the ingredients together to evenly coat them.
Place the hot dogs on the preheated grill. Cook them for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until heated through and grill marks appear.
While the hot dogs are grilling, lightly brush the inside of the low-carb buns with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
Toast the buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until they are golden and crispy, then remove them from the heat.
Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on the inside of each bun.
Place the grilled hot dogs in the buns, then generously top each with the prepared avocado, tomato, and onion mixture.
Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the toppings on each hot dog.
Serve immediately, enjoying the blend of fresh ingredients and gourmet flavors in these low-carb gourmet hot dogs.
