Ingredients

• 1-2 Vidalia onions
• 1 red pepper
• 1 orange bell pepper

• 1 package beef franks
• 1 package hot dog buns
• Optional toppings: shredded Cheddar or Mexican cheese, guacamole, salsa, chopped tomatoes, sliced avocado, sliced jalapenos, cilantro, sour cream, and or sliced olives.

Steps

1. Heat grill to medium, approximately 300 degrees.
2. Wash bell peppers; cut off tops and stems; discard seeds and membranes from the inside. Slice bell peppers in half lengthwise once. Peel onions; cut in half.
3. Place bell peppers on the grill with cut side up. Place onions on the grill with cut side down. When they have nice char markings, turn them over and repeat on other sides. Remove from grill when the peppers and onions have softened, have char marks, and are cooked to your desired doneness. When cool enough to touch, slice grilled bell peppers and onions into strips.
