Equipment

Ingredients

  • 15 hot dog buns
  • 15 hot dogs bun length
  • 1 bag blue tortilla chips
  • 3 slices white cheese
  • ketchup

Instructions

  • Cook the hot dogs.
  • Put the hot dogs in buns and place on the cutting board. For our 15"x20" board we made three rows of 3 hot dogs, and three rows of 2 hot dogs. Depending on the size of your cutting board this may differ, you may be able to use more or less hot dogs. The important thing is to start with a rectangular cutting board regardless of overall size.
    A person in an orange shirt arranges several hot dogs in buns on a wooden board, preparing food. Only the persons arms and hands are visible.
  • Arrange the blue tortilla chips in the left corner of the cutting board.

  • Using a small star cookie cutter, cut out the stars. You will need roughly 8-10 stars.
    A person uses a star-shaped cookie cutter to cut cheese slices on a wooden board. Star-shaped cheese pieces are on the board, with hot dog buns, blue corn chips, and a festive plate nearby.
