Ingredients

    1 lb ground beef
    2 cloves Garlic, minced
    1 large bell pepper
    3/4 of a large onion, diced (use more if you like sauteed onion)
    2 tsp Chili powder
    1/2 tsp Cumin seed
    1/4 tsp Pepper, black
    1 tsp Salt
    1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
    1 Tbsp Sugar
    1/2 tsp Celery Salt
    1 (8 oz) can Iberia Tomato Sauce
    1 cup Water
    1/2 cup Tomato Paste
    8 Turkey Hot Dogs, sliced longways down the middle and cut in half
    1 cup shredded cheddar or cheddar blend cheese (or more if you like alot of cheese)


Directions

1. Combine the ground beef, 2/3 of the chopped onion, peppers and garlic in a large frying pan and saute until ground beef is browned. Drain fat.
2. Add spices, Worcestershire, sugar tomato paste and water to the pan, stir to combine and simmer for 30 minutes.
3. Optional step, but totally makes it just like a real hot dog chili: Using a food processor or immersion blender, process the chili until the beef is in very small pieces.
4. Lay hot dogs flat on the bottom of a 7 x 9 casserole dish. Cover with chili. (you should have enough to reserve a bit for those that are eating regular hot dogs and want chili.) Spread 1 cup of cheese over chili and top with remaining onion.
5. Bake at 400 F for about 15 to 20 minutes or until hot and bubbly!
