How to Make Layered Veggie Sliders
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped mixed vegetables, breadcrumbs, cheddar cheese, parsley, thyme, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Form the mixture into small patties, about 2 inches in diameter. You should be able to make around 12 patties.
- Place the patties on a greased baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- While the patties are baking, slice the mini burger buns in half and prepare any condiments you wish to serve.
- Once the patties are done, assemble your sliders by placing one veggie patty on the bottom half of each bun. Top with the other half of the bun.
- Serve immediately with optional mayonnaise and mustard on the side.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure that your veggies are finely chopped to help them bind well in the patties.
- Feel free to experiment with different vegetables based on your preferences.
- If the mixture seems too dry, add a little more olive oil or a splash of vegetable broth.
- For extra flavor, try adding spices like paprika or chili powder to the mixture.
Easy Variations
- Swap out the cheddar cheese for mozzarella or feta for a different flavor profile.
- Add a layer of avocado or sliced tomatoes for extra freshness.
- Use whole wheat or gluten-free mini buns to accommodate dietary needs.
- Incorporate cooked quinoa or lentils into the patties for added protein.
What to Serve With It
