Everything Pigs In Blankets

The perfect Super Bowl snack...
Making pigs in blankets from a box is the easiest way to go, but if you want to make yours different, spice it up with some seasoning. You can't go wrong with an everything bagel, so why not put it on a pigs in a blanket?? 

Yield: Makes 40
Ingredients:
1.   40 pre-made pigs in blankets
(I bought this package: Cohen's Mini Beef Franks in Puff Pastry)
2.   1 egg
3. Everything Bagel Seasoning to taste (I used the Trader Joe's brand Everything but the Bagel)
- - - -
OR you can make your own seasoning (which still will make it 7 ingredients!)
3.    1 tablespoon poppy seeds
4.    2 tablespoons sesame seeds
5.    2 tablespoons dried minced garlic
6.    2 tablespoons dried minced onion
7.   Kosher salt to taste

Directions:
1. Pre heat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Take a baking sheet and cover with tin foil. Spray a light layer of cooking spray.
3. Place hotdogs on baking sheet. Make sure that they do not touch.
4. Whisk the egg and lightly coat the top of each hotdog blanket. 
5. In a small bowl, mix poppy seeds, sesame seeds, dried onion, dried garlic, and salt. 
6. Sprinkle seasonings on top of hotdog blankets. 
7. Lower oven temperature to 375 degrees and place in the oven. Bake for 20 minutes.
