Cheeseburger Sliders Recipe For School Lunch
An easy-to-follow cheeseburger slider recipe for your school lunch. This easy cheeseburger slider recipe makes sure your kid has a school lunch meal ready in no time.
Ingredients
- 8 mini whole-grain buns
- 4 turkey or chicken patties cooked and halved
- 8 lettuce leaves
- 4 slices of cheddar cheese halved
- 1 cup sweet potato fries baked
Instructions
Prepare the Sweet Potato Fries:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven heats up, wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Spread the sweet potato fries out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat the fries evenly.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are golden and crispy. Once done, remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
Cook or Heat the Patties:
- If you’re using pre-cooked turkey or chicken patties, heat them in a skillet or microwave until warmed through. If the patties are raw, cook them in a skillet over medium heat for 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden brown.
Assemble the Sliders:
- Slice each mini bun in half horizontally. Place half of a cooked patty on the bottom half of each bun.
- Top the patty with a slice of cheddar cheese and a lettuce leaf. The cheese will melt slightly from the heat of the patty, adding to the flavor.
- Place the top half of the bun on the slider to complete the assembly.
Pack the Sliders:
- Carefully pack the sliders in your child’s lunchbox. Place a serving of sweet potato fries in a separate compartment or container to keep them crispy until lunchtime.
Serve:
- The sliders are perfect for little hands and make a fun and satisfying lunch. They’re best served at room temperature, so they’re great for packing ahead of time.
