When I was a kid my parents would stop by a street hot dog cart that parked close to our church every Sunday and that was our after mass meal!

I grew up in Bogota, Colombia where street hot dogs carts are a thing. Colombian Hot dogs are quite a sight to admire. See, we get super creative with them. We top hot dogs with crushed potato chips, 'salsa rosada' a traditional pink sauce made from mixing ketchup and mayonnaise, pineapple sauce, coleslaw and even quail eggs! I don't eat soy or recommend anyone to but when I heard of carrot dogs I immediately baked some carrots and tried recreating my childhood memories and it worked!

Being a vegan and a vegetarian is so easy! You just have to see the world with compassion and get creative when you cook! 

Here's my recipe, hope you enjoy it!
