Vegan hot dogs have no meat or dairy but still have so much flavour! We’ve used tofu sausages and topped them with sweet fried peppers and onions, a mustardy ketchup and some home made pimped salsa to give our vegan hot dogs an added punch. Vegan food has an unfair reputation of being bland and boring, but this recipe proves how delicious and easy vegan food can be. If you are only catering for one vegan you could buy regular hot dogs too and use the same toppings for the regular and vegan hot dogs. We’ve used Taifun tofu sausages, which are available in Waitrose, but you could use any other vegan sausage you like. This easy but delicious recipe makes catering for vegan guests at a summer barbeque a breeze!
