FunGuy’s Mushroom Pepper and Cheese Hot Dogs

Barbecue season may be almost over, but you can keep the summer going with these FunGuy approved cheesy mushroom and pepper topped hot dogs for your Labor Day party!

Smother your favorite hot dog in melted provolone cheese and a handful (or two) of our sautéed mushrooms, sliced red onions, and tangy pickled pepperoncini peppers.

Messy? Maybe, but it’ll be a hit with the whole family!

DIRECTIONS:

1. In a skillet, heat half of the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the hot dogs to the pan and allow them to cook about 3-4 minutes, rolling back and forth occasionally in the oil to coat evenly and brown the outside. Pour about ¼ inch of water in the pan and cover with a lid. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and allow the hot dogs to steam for 5-7 minutes. Transfer the hot dogs to a plate and cover to keep warm. 
2. Return the skillet to the burner and heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium high. Add in the onion and sauté 2 minutes. Stir in the FunGuy mushrooms and cook 3-4 minutes or until browned. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste, and turn off the heat.
3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the hot dog buns on top for assembling the hot dogs. Spread the mayonnaise on the inside of each bun and add a hot dog to each. Add a slice of cheese, tearing it if needed to fit the bun and hot dog, top with the mushroom and onion mixture, and peppers. 
4. Turn the broiler setting on the oven and place the oven rack in the second to top position. Place the baking tray with the prepared hot dogs into the oven to let the cheese melt approximately 3-5 minutes. Turn off the heat and remove the hot dogs from the oven to cool.
5. Top with any extra pepper slices or onions if desired and serve!

Have a Fun meal!
