INGREDIENTS

6 oz 93% lean ground beef

1 slice turkey bacon

0.5 oz sharp cheddar cheese

2 small whole wheat slider buns

1 leaf romaine lettuce

2 slice tomato

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp yellow mustard

PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the turkey bacon in a cold non-stick skillet and turn the heat to medium. Cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side, then set aside on a paper towel to drain.

• 2

  In a small bowl, season the ground beef with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently and form into two small, equal-sized slider patties.

• 3

  Using the same skillet over medium-high heat, sear the beef patties for about 3 minutes on the first side until a nice crust forms.

• 4

  Flip the patties and immediately top each with a portion of the sharp cheddar cheese. Cover the pan for 1 minute to allow the cheese to melt completely.

• 5

  While the cheese melts, lightly toast the whole wheat slider buns in a separate pan or toaster until golden brown.

• 6

  Assemble the sliders by spreading yellow mustard on the bottom buns, followed by the romaine lettuce and tomato slices.

• 7

  Place the cheesy beef patties on top, break the crispy turkey bacon in half to fit each slider, and finish with the top buns.
