For each Mummy Dog, cut one dinner roll in half. Roll each half into a 22-24-inch rope. Wrap one rope around hot dog from bottom up 4 1/2 inches. Cut a 1 1/2 inch piece off of the second rope and set aside. Wrap the second rope around the hot dog from the bottom up 4 1/2 inches going the opposite way. Wrap the 1 1/2 inch piece around the top of the hot dog. Place Mummy Dogs on a sprayed baking sheet and bake at 350°F 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven, cool slightly and add mustard eyes. Serve warm with ketchup and mustard.

1 package (16 ounces) fresh broccoli, cauliflower,
   and carrot medley
1 can (14 ounces) chicken broth
2 cups milk
1 package (1 1/4 ounces) country gravy mix
1/2 teaspoon Italian herb seasoning
1 package (8 ounces) shredded American

Pat each biscuit into 5-inch round. Place over outside of 8 inverted 6-ounce custard cups that have been coated with no-stick cooking spray; press to fit over bottom and sides of cups. Place biscuit-side up on baking sheet with sides. Bake in 375°F. oven until deep golden brown, about 15 to 18 minutes.

Add vegetables and broth to saucepan; cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in milk, gravy mix, and seasoning; return to a boil. Reduce heat; stir in cheese until melted, about 2 minutes. Ladle soup into biscuit bowls.
