Carrot Dogs

These are the least expensive vegan hot dogs you will ever eat. Organic carrots are always affordable and you can get some at your farmers market and eat local to boot.

This may sound like one of my weirdest recipes, but trust me, it really works. I read about someone eating a carrot dog on a vacation and they raved about it. I was fairly skeptical, but I loved the idea of having carrots in place of the much processed veggie dog.

Obviously a carrot is the same shape and close enough in color to make a decent hot dog substitute. But the real question is about the taste. The marinade really takes it to the next level. I think the sesame oil does it, but the vinegar gives it that “cured” flavor too.

    This is awesome. What a creative idea. Will have to give it a whirl next time we have some vegetarian and vegan friends over during a BBQ.
