- Experiment with different types of cheese, such as cheddar or Monterey Jack, to customize the flavor profile.
- If you prefer a vegetarian version, substitute the hot dog sausages with grilled or roasted vegetables, such as bell peppers, zucchini, and eggplant.
- Don't be shy with the toppings! The more generous you are, the more flavorful and satisfying the hot dog will be.
- Serve with a side of crispy French fries or plantain chips for a complete Colombian street food experience.
