Ketchup, mustard and or barbecue sauce for dipping

Plus

Preparation

Yum, yum: Hot Dog and Tater Tot Skewers (photo courtesy Lightlife).

1. PREHEAT the grill to a high heat. Slice each hot dog into three diagonal pieces.

2. THREAD one piece of hot dog at the base of the skewer. Next add a Tater Tot, being careful not to tear it; then a cherry tomato. Repeat this process until the skewer is completely filled. Once all of the skewers are ready to grill…

3. BRUSH them on one side with the olive oil. Season each skewer and place onto the grill. Grill for 1-2 minutes, then turn them over and repeat. They will be done when the hot dogs begin to blister. Serve at once with dipping sauce(s).
