    I first saw carrot dogs in a local market freezer and it did make me curious on how it would taste. Sausage sizzles are quite common in summer and earlier had nothing to offer for vegetarians. Now, however times are getting better, sometimes they do. More supermarkets offer vegan recipes. A trip to Ikea made me enjoy the veggie hot dog immensely. Kudos to Ikea for putting up vegan and plant based recipes. Here is our take on vegan carrot dogs.

    This meatless hot dogs recipe is pretty simple to make. Carrots are easily available and so are hot dog rolls. It is a great recipe for Bento boxes too. Kids love to see each others lunch boxes. Seeing something similar makes them feel happy too. This is great especially when they have dietary restrictions. Try this recipe for your family, and you will not be disappointed!

    • You can make a vegetarian hot dog if you want to serve cheese slices along with the vegan dog. Use a vegan cheese slice instead of dairy based, for easy vegan recipe.

    Storage

    You can freeze these carrots after you cook a batch. Heat them before you serve along with hot dog buns.

    FAQ


    What are carrot dogs made of?

    Yes, carrots and a blend of different sauce to give it that flavor. It is obviously more healthy as it has no processed meat , lesser calories and lesser saturated fat.

    Why are hot dogs unhealthy?

    It is full of processed meat and 80% of it has saturated fats. This increases risk of colon cancer and heart attacks especially when eaten regularly. It is better to eat the vegan option made at home.
