Ingredients
  

4 large hot dogs

4 brioche hot dog buns

4 slices of thick-cut bacon

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

2 cups arugula or spinach

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for drizzling

Instructions
 

Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove from the skillet and place on paper towels to absorb excess fat.

    Prepare the Hot Dogs: In the same skillet, use the leftover bacon fat to grill the hot dogs until they are heated through and have nice grill marks, about 5-7 minutes. Alternatively, you can also boil them according to package instructions.

      Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth. Set aside.

        Assemble the Sandwiches: Toast the brioche hot dog buns lightly in the skillet until golden. Place a grilled hot dog in each bun.

          Layer on the Goodies: Add the crispy bacon on top of each hot dog, followed by a generous handful of arugula or spinach and a few halved cherry tomatoes.

            Drizzle with Dressing: Spoon the mayo dressing over the assembled hot dogs, ensuring even coverage.

              Finish and Serve: Drizzle a little olive oil over everything for an extra touch of flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy your gourmet twist on the classic BLT!
