What would be a good side dish for chili dogs?
I am suppose to bring a side dish to a potluck tomorrow and the host is serving chili dogs. What would be a good side dish to bring?
Answers:
Well, I am also going to add baked beans as a suggestion. Here's my recipe.
Sorry I dont have exact measurements.
Baked Beans
4 or 5 cans of campbells pork and beans then add ketchup, mustard, brown sugar, chopped onion, karo syrup, and lil smokies and bake them in the oven for 35-45 minutes at 350'. Talk about delicious.
Sometimes i use beef smoked sausage or kielbasa pieces instead of the lil smokies. =0)
Spiced Potato (I am assuming that you are using about 8 potatoes)
1. Take 1 large onion and chop it up (about 2 cm per piece)
2. Heat up a skillet/any type of pot you like and add the onions in some cooking oil
3. Cook for about 5 mints
4. Add pepper, and a can of salsa
5. Add about a cup of yogurt and a cup of boiling water
6. Cook for about 15 mints
7. Check if the potatoes are done
8. As soon as the potatoes are done add some chopped ginger, 1 chopped bell pepper, 2 large tomatoes and fresh cilantro. Cover the pot for about 10 mints to steam the pepper and tomatoes
9. ENJOY
frito's so you can make frito pies.
You could bring a cold salad, such a tossed or slaw.
macaroni salad, cole slaw, or potato salad
I think a great sidedish would be a salad.
Potato Salad - not the mayonaisse based type. There is a recipe for a good one on the cooksillustrated website. It uses small red potatoes, olive oil, scallions, bacon bits and cheese I think. It works VERY well at room tempature.
Chips, french fries, potato salad, macaroni salad
French fries, Onion rings, something junk food like, I got it my favorite. Chili dogs with Doritos, or with french fries, cause the chili can go on every one.
bakes beans
chips
tator tots, french fries, maybe mac and cheese. something simple.
baked beans and coleslaw or potato salad.
Well, my first answer would be french fries/tater tots, etc., but they won't travel, so unless you're going to make them at your friends house here are some other suggestions:

Hope that helped some!
Lay's potato chips
Pepsid AC,Beano,Tums or Malox works well
French Fries with salsa spiced mayo for dipping, onions optional....First dip you fry in the salsa/mayo mixture, then dip that into some chopped onions...eat and enjoy...the only thing is that you can't all that easily take it to someone else's home....in lieu of the fry's, a healthy alternative would be cut up vegie's with the salsa dip
Baked Beans and Potato Salad
Tums.
