Vegan carrot hot dogs, a plant-based alternative to

classic hot dogs! They’re much healthier and perfect for
barbecues.

ingredients
4 large carrots
1/2 cup tamari or soy sauce (125 ml)
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar (125 ml)
1/2 cup water (125 ml)
2 tbsp maple syrup
2 tsp paprika
2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
4 buns (gluten-free if needed), we used whole wheat buns
Ketchup, mustard, sauerkraut and chopped chives to taste

instructions
1 Peel and boil the carrots over medium-high heat until fork tender. The cooking time
may vary, our carrots were ready in about 30 minutes. Drain and set aside.
2 Mix all the marinade ingredients in a bowl (tamari, vinegar, water, syrup, paprika,
garlic powder and pepper) and stir until well combined. Add the carrots (they have to
be fully covered by the marinade) and keep covered (we used a sealed container) in
the fridge for 24 hours.
3 The next day, drain the carrots and cook them. We cooked our carrots on a griddle
with a little bit of extra virgin olive oil (optional), but you can also grill them or cook
them in a skillet (over medium-high heat) for 5 to 10 minutes each side or until golden
brown. Don’t discard the marinade, use it to make more carrot hot dogs or add it to
any dish you want (we add a couple of tablespoons to our veggies when we cook them
in a skillet to make them taste better).
4 Place carrots in buns and serve with ketchup, mustard, sauerkraut and chopped
chives or add your favorite toppings.
5 Best when fresh, keep leftover cooked carrots in a sealed container in the fridge for 2
to 3 days.

notes
Any type of vinegar or sweetener is okay.
Add your favorite spices and herbs to the marinade.
Nutritional info is not accurate, as I didn’t include the marinade ingredients because
we discard most of the marinade.
