Cute little sandwiches for your little racers! Great addition to a Hot Wheels or Racing themed party (Menu #632). Ingredients:
6 hot dog buns (not split) |
24 slices cucumbers or 24 slices zucchini |
1 carrot, cut into 1-inch matchstick-size strips |
6 ripe olives |
6 miniature pretzel twists |
3 cheese slices, cut in half |
1 lb ground beef or 1 lb ground turkey |
2 stalks celery |
1 small onion |
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce |
1/4 cup ketchup |
1/4 cup barbecue sauce |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
1 teaspoon dry mustard |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
1 tablespoon vinegar |
Directions:
1. Hollow out roll leaving a nice size edge. Use toothpick to attach each cucumber slice to the side of the car for wheels. Pull out toothpick and push carrot strip through hole.
2. Cut olives in half horizontally. Make two holes in one end of each bun to attach headlights with a toothpick. Stick carrot strips into olive hole and into the holes you made in the bun.
