These Cheesy Jalapeno Sausage Dogs are quickly becoming a Summertime favorite here! We had them a few nights ago and we’re still discussing how good they were. In fact, I’m planning to grill up a few more for dinner tonight!
Who doesn’t love a grilled sausage, covered in cheese? Throw on some Mexican taste of salsa verde, jalapenos and onions and you got a Sausage Dog bursting full of flavor!
I love that these sausages are turkey too. Turkey has becoming more popular over the years, but can you blame it? It’s a great alternative to other proteins that is great for grilling. It comes in all your BBQ favorites too – brats, burgers, tenderloins and more. Did you know that turkey has more protein than beef? Did you know it has fewer calories than chicken? Did you know it has less fat than pork? I know, awesome!
So next time you’re craving a flavorful BBQ favorite, grab a Cheesy Jalapeno Sausage Dog!

Visiting your blog is almost as great as taking a trip, you really do offer up such a broad range of fun and different recipes. Big fan of jalapenos, sausage – the Gen Y in me wants to say – Yeah I am! 🙂 And cheese, well cheese makes everything wonderful. 🙂
I forgot to say on the last couple of posts, new blog looks fab. Happy Thursday. xx
