Preparation

Step 1

First make your burgers

Add all your ingredients for your burgers in a large bowl.

Shape small burger patties.

Heat up a large skillet under medium heat with a bit of fat in it (I used bacon fat) and add your sliders. Flip after about 3-5 minutes or when you see the sides of your sliders begin to turn a white color (meaning they are cooking through).

Now make your slaw

Pull out your handy dandy food processor, add all your ingredients for the slaw other than the cabbage and pulse until smooth.

Pour your avocado “mayo” on the cabbage and mix. Top off with a bit of salt and pepper.

Place your cabbage on a plate and top off with your sliders!
