Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Peel and thinly slice the red onion. Core and slice the red and yellow bell peppers. Clean and slice the mushrooms.
In a medium-sized skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced red onion and sauté for 3 minutes.
Add the bell peppers and mushrooms to the skillet. Season with sea salt and ground black pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 7-8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the grill is hot, place the vegetarian hot dogs on it. Grill them for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until heated through and slightly charred.
Lightly toast the whole wheat hot dog buns on the grill for about 1 minute until warm and golden.
Spread 2 tablespoons of Bearnaise sauce inside each hot dog bun.
Place the grilled vegetarian hot dog into each bun.
Top with the sautéed vegetables, crumbled feta cheese, and a few fresh basil leaves.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Vegetarian Gourmet Hot Dog with Deluxe Toppings.
