Freezing hot dogs for single use

My daughter LOVES hot dogs!  I usually buy the organic hot dogs by Applegate Farms, because they do not contain nitrates.  And although they are organic, it doesn't necessarily mean they are healthy enough to eat everyday.  If I freeze the entire pack, it becomes a frozen brick, making it impossible to seperate just one hot dog at a time.  So... I've come up with a clever way to freeze a pack of hot dogs for single use.  Watch and learn!

You will need some waxed paper, a freezer ziploc bag, and a pack of hot dogs.



Lay out a piece of waxed paper, approximately 18 inches long (it doesn't have to be exact - just eyeball it) and space 3 hot dogs near side.

Fold the other half of the waxed paper over top of the 3 hot dogs.  Then place the remaining hot dogs inbetween the first set of hot dogs.



Fold the extra edges of the waxed paper around the hot dogs and slide them into a quart sized freezer bag.  I like to clip the packaging and stick that in the bag as well, so that I know exactly what it is later on.  Pop it in the freezer and you're all set!

Now when your kids ask for a hot dog for lunch or dinner (or if you're craving one yourself) you can easily take just one or two out of the freezer without having to defrost the entire brick!
