2. Assemble Hot Dogs:

   • Lay out a flour tortilla on a clean surface.
   • Place a slice of American cheese in the center of the tortilla.
   • Put a hot dog on top of the cheese slice.
   • Roll up the tortilla tightly around the hot dog and cheese.

3. Secure with Toothpick:

   • Insert a toothpick through the rolled tortilla to hold it together securely. This will prevent the hot dog from unwrapping during cooking.

4. Cooking Options:

   • Stovetop Method:
     • Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
     • Place the rolled hot dogs in the pan and cook until golden brown on all sides, and the cheese is melted. This typically takes a few minutes per side.
   • Microwave Method:
     • Alternatively, for a quick cooking option, you can microwave the assembled hot dogs. Place them on a microwave-safe plate and heat for about 20 seconds or until the cheese is melted.

5. Serve:

   • Once cooked, remove the hot dogs from the heat source.
   • Serve them hot with your favorite salsa for dipping or drizzle with hot sauce for an extra kick.

Tips:

• Customize your Mexican Hot Dogs by adding additional toppings such as diced onions, jalapeños, or avocado slices before rolling them up.
• Use whole wheat or corn tortillas for a healthier twist on this classic recipe.
• For a vegetarian version, substitute the hot dogs with vegetarian sausages or grilled vegetables.
