Low-Calorie Hot Dogs? Yes. We. Did.
Hot dogs, frankfurters, wieners - they're a delicious and guilty pleasure, aren't they? But what if we told you that you could eat them with a Lo-Dough base and enjoy an entire one for 380 calories?
And that is going all in with a full-fat sausage - no skimping on the contents. Lo-Dough is used to make a soft and tasty finger bun with only 39 calories, leaving you free to enjoy the meat and top up with mustard or ketchup (or both, why not).
We suggest the New York hot dog as a Friday night treat or weekend indulgence. Being good to yourself includes having a treat, right?
