Sweet Potato Sliders
No bun…… No problem!
Ingredients
1 lb. ground beef (optional- ground turkey)
1 tbsp. dijon mustard
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 medium sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2″ inch thick rounds
1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
FOR TOPPING
4 slices Monterey Jack (optional- add your favorite cheese)
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced into rounds
1/2 avocado, thinly sliced
4 slices bacon, cooked
Directions
- In a medium bowl, stir together beef, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper and form into 4 small patties.
- In another medium bowl, toss sweet potatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Heat grill to medium-high heat. Place burgers on one side of the grill and sweet potatoes on the other. Cook sweet potatoes until tender, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Cook burgers to your liking, 3 to 4 minutes a side for medium-rare, adding cheese after the first flip.
- Build burgers: Top each bottom “bun” with burger, red onion, bacon, and avocado, then top with second “bun”.
