Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 450 g ground chuck or any preferred ground meat
  • 1 can petite diced tomatoes (400 g) canned for convenience
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 240 ml water
  • 8 units hot dogs can be regular or low-carb
  • 8 units low carb tortillas or wraps for wrapping the hot dogs
  • 100 g shredded cheddar cheese can substitute with preferred cheese

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and spray a 23 x 33 cm (9 x 13 inch) casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the cooked ground chuck, diced tomatoes, water, and spices. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to medium-low and simmer for 8-10 minutes until thickened.
  • Spoon some of the chilli sauce into the bottom of the prepared dish to create a nice base.
  • Roll each hot dog in a tortilla and place them seam-side down in the sauce.
  • Pour the remaining chilli sauce over the hot dogs and top with the shredded cheddar cheese.

Baking

  • Bake for 30-35 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the casserole is set.
  • Let it cool slightly before serving, and enjoy with your favourite toppings!

Notes

For a beautiful presentation, slice the casserole into generous squares and plate them alongside fresh toppings like diced onions, avocado, or a dollop of sour cream. Pair with a fizzy drink or refreshing iced tea for a complete feast. Consider making it ahead as it keeps well in the fridge.
