#4 - All American Sliders served Fruit Skewers and a Patriotic Fruit & Cheese Plate.

 

All American Sliders

1 pound ground beef

¼ cup Wildtree Absolutely Onion Blend

5 slices American cheese, halved

10 small slider buns

10 teaspoons light mayo

5 leaves romaine lettuce, ends trimmed and halved

2 plum tomatoes, sliced

¼ cup pickles

 

Mix together the ground beef and Onion Blend; divide into 10 equal portions and shape into patties. Preheat a greased grill pan to medium high; cook burgers to desired temperature. Turn off heat. Top each burger with a half slice of cheese and cover to allow the cheese to melt. Spread 1 teaspoon of mayo on each bottom bun. Top with lettuce, tomato, the burger, a few pickles, and the top bun. Secure the burger with a skewer if needed.
