Turkey Sliders & UCLA Football

Last weekend we went to the UCLA vs Texas game. We had a blast even though UCLA got crushed :-(

 In preparation for the game, I decided to make sliders for the tailgate before hand. Our friends were bringing the beer and we were bringing the food!

Let me start out by saying that I love love love to make burgers, so being on slider duty was exciting for me!

We use 1 lb of ground turkey meat. Let it thaw.

Put the turkey meat into a bowl.  Add 1 egg, about ½ cup of bread crumbs, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and about ½ cup of feta cheese.

 Mix it all together.

With your hands, make patties that are a little smaller than the palm of your hand.

We use a grill pan because we don’t have a BBQ.  Cook patties until they are no longer pink inside.

Remove from grill and place on buns and enjoy!

{This should make you about 12 patties}

 For the onions:

I used about half of a yellow onion – obviously adjust base on how many you are feeding!

Coat your pan with EVOO salt and pepper and add the onions.

Coat the onions with the EVOO and cover the pan to keep the moisture in – this will help the onions soften.

Let the onions cook until they are soft enough to your taste buds.

Put the onions on your patties and add your favorite condiments and enjoy!!

Happy NCAA Season!
