Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium heat.
Place the low-fat turkey hot dogs on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until heated through and grill marks appear.
While the hot dogs are grilling, prepare the toppings by dicing the tomatoes and finely chopping the onion.
Slice the dill pickles lengthwise into spears if they are not pre-cut, and set the sport peppers aside.
Toast the whole wheat buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until they are slightly crispy and warmed through.
Assemble the hot dogs. Place a grilled hot dog inside each toasted bun.
Top each hot dog with approximately 1/4 cup of diced tomatoes and 1/4 cup of chopped onions.
Add one dill pickle spear and two sport peppers on top of each dog.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of mustard and 1 tablespoon of low-fat relish over each hot dog.
Sprinkle a pinch of celery salt over the tops.
Finish each hot dog with a garnish of 1/4 cup of chopped lettuce for added crunch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, low-fat Chicago-style hot dogs!
