Notes

Storage

If you have extra servings of Keto Hot Dog Casserole, you can store them covered in the fridge for up to 4 days. For longer storage, keep your casserole in the freezer for up to 3 months.
You can also prep the chili in advance to make this casserole recipe a breeze! Store in the fridge if you plan to use it within a few days; otherwise, keep the chili in the freezer.
If you make more than one batch, make sure you freeze the batches in separate containers. That way, you only have to thaw one at a time when you’re ready enjoy your Keto Chili Dog Casserole.
Like any good casserole, this dish reheats very well. I love having leftovers to enjoy throughout the week!
Simply pop your leftovers in the microwave or oven. Cook until heated through, then dig in.
