Slider Ingredients
- 1 slider bun
- 1 1/2 tbsp cranberry sauce
- 2-3 oz sliced turkey breast or thigh meat
- 2-3 tbsp stuffing
- 2 tbsp brown gravy
Instructions
- Prepare the Bun: Cut the slider bun in half horizontally to create a top and bottom bun. Spread the cranberry sauce evenly over the bottom half to add a sweet and tart base layer.
- Assemble the Slider: Lay the sliced turkey evenly over the cranberry sauce. Then spoon the stuffing on top of the turkey to add a hearty and savory component.
- Add Gravy: Drizzle the brown gravy over the stuffing to infuse moisture and deep, rich flavor into the slider.
- Complete the Slider: Place the top half of the slider bun over the gravy layer, pressing gently to combine all the elements without squashing the slider.
- Serve: Serve the sliders immediately to enjoy the combination of warm stuffing and gravy with cool, tender turkey and sweet cranberry sauce.
Notes
- Use leftover turkey and stuffing for a quick and easy assembly.
- For a vegetarian twist, substitute turkey with grilled vegetables or a plant-based meat alternative.
- If preferred warm, briefly heat the assembled slider in a microwave or oven before serving.
- Slider buns can be substituted with dinner rolls or small sandwich buns if sliders are unavailable.
- Adjust cranberry sauce quantity depending on personal taste preference for sweetness and tanginess.
