Chili Dog Biscuit Casserole – The American classic chili cheese dog turned into an easy weeknight casserole!  This dish is full of flavor and makes a fun dinner the whole family will love.

Does it get any more classic than a hot dog loaded up with warm chili and melty cheese?  I think not.

Pretty sure my kids could live off of the things.

I have one child that is ALL about hot dogs all the time and would prefer to just eat them raw out of the package (no thanks, dude).

The other kiddo doesn’t even think about putting a hot dog in her pie hole unless it’s a chili dog!

Me, I can do a hot dog, just not very often.

But, I can do this chili dog casserole every single day of my cheese loving life if you’d let me.

While I always like to keep my posts light and happy around here, I do want to touch base with you guys on a more personal level.

If you follow me on Instagram and my story there, you’ll already know why I was away from my blog last week.  I was still cooking, I just found it difficult to make a post, and I wanted to share why.

This recipe was made last week because some comfort food was much needed.

A bout a week ago, we lost a dear family member.  My cousin, Shawn.

His story is a long one, as he was a childhood cancer survivor.

He lived with brain damage the majority of his life.

BUT, he LIVED.  He wasn’t supposed to, but he defeated the odds at an early age and lived to be 39 years old.

Shawn was by far the most precious person to ever have existed.  A truly innocent, loving, kind, soul.

He was loved by everyone.

He is missed by everyone.

“Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us everyday….unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed, and very dear.”  – Anonymous

Thanks to my readers for bearing with me while I was away from the blog last week.

We’re back up and running this week and this comfort food dinner seemed like a good place to start!

If it’s too hot in your neck of the woods to heat up your oven but you still want some cheesy chili comfort food, be sure to check out my Crockpot Frito Chili Pie.

Enjoy!

NOTE:  This is also great with minced onions added in before cooking.

    GREAT recipe!!!! The only sad thing for me is the hotdog,chili and biscuits were equally salty and I didn’t even add salt. The 3 combo together was just naturally salty. I didn’t mix the biscuits but placed torn pieces on top of mixture and spread the cheese on top on biscuits and it came out beautifully thoroughly cooked 😋

    This recipe is very good but my biscuits took forever to cook. It ended up taking around an hour and a half but it tasted really yummy!
