Hotdog Roll-Ups with Coconut-Chili Dip

Servings: 12 mini bite-size
Preparation Time: 45 minutes–1 hour

Ingredients:

• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons aluminum-free baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, optional
• 6 tablespoons filtered water
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
• 2 organic beef hot dogs
• 2 tablespoons Coconut Cream Concentrate
• 1 tablespoon chili sauce
• 2 teaspoons organic ketchup

Directions:

Hotdog Roll-Ups:

Measure the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and oregano into a bowl. Make a well in the center and gradually add the water and coconut oil.

Stir until the dough forms a ball. Transfer to a floured surface and knead for at least 5 minutes.

Divide the dough to 6 pieces. Flatten the pieces into long strips, and cut in half, making 12 strips.

Slice hot dogs (lengthwise and/or crosswise) into 12 smaller bite-size pieces. Roll them up in the dough strips one at a time.

Bake in a preheated 400 degree F oven for 15–20 minutes or until lightly browned.

Coconut-Chili Dip:

Whisk Coconut Cream Concentrate, chili sauce, and ketchup in a small dish until smooth.

Coconut, Cashew Dip

Servings: 4–6
Preparation Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup raw cashews, soaked (at least an hour)
• 1/3 cup coconut milk*
• 1 tablespoon Virgin Coconut Oil
• 2 vanilla beans, scraped or 1/4 teaspoon vanilla bean powder or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 tablespoons sweetener of choice

Directions:

Add all of the ingredients into a blender or food processor. If using a food processor and sugar, I would run your sugar through a blender or coffee grinder so it’s not grainy.

Blend until well combined and smooth.

Store in the refrigerator.

*For the freshest coconut milk, make homemade coconut milk. (See video at this link.)
