First off, I want to thank everyone for the great response to my initial recipe. It is so exciting to be off to a great start and I am hoping to keep up the momentum. This weeks appetizer will be consumed a day early. My husband is off to a guys night to see Dave Chapelle. He is very aware that I am watching Fear the Walking Dead without him. His loss. And I’m having a girls night with the pups- Boo!Dog and Carrie. Painted nails, good food and lounging around… And ice cream for dinner. Lots of ice cream.
Tonight’s recipe is Taco Burger Sliders. Inspired by a dish that my awesome sister, Ann, makes (Taco Burgers). You may say “But burgers, isn’t that a meal” and I’ll respond, “That’s why [insert various higher power of your choice or science] made sliders!” Mini delicious burgers.
3/4 lb ground beef
6 Kings Hawiian Dinner Rolls (Or a dinner roll of your choice)
3 leaves of Lettuce
2 small tomatoes
Cheese for 6 sliders, we used Quesadilla Mexican Melting Cheese
1/4 cup sour cream
1 packet of taco seasoning
Peppers and onions *see note on step 11.
- Prepare the Sour Cream Mix, mix together 1/4 cup of sour cream and 1/4 a packet of taco seasoning. Mix well and put bowl in fridge to keep cool.
- Mix ground beef and remaining taco seasoning. Once well mixed, portion out into 6 small patties (pretend you are making meatballs then smush them)
- Push a thumbprint into the middle of each patty and place on stove, or grill.
- Cook thoroughly. Top with cheese if you would like and melt.
- While cooking, prep your buns, if not halved, slice each bun in half long-way.
- On the top half of each bun, put a small amount of sour cream mix and spread.
- Place cooked slider patty on bottom bun
- Top with 1 slice of tomato and 1 slice of lettuce
- Place top bun on
- Enjoy to your hearts content!
- *in the image you will see sauteed onions and peppers. They are a delicious addition however they are slippery and hard to eat so I left them out of the recipe. You can add if you want!
