Meatless Monday Meatless Sliders. It’s Meatless Monday and we’re havin’ a slider party!

Meatless Monday Meatless Sliders

And yes, folks that’s a meatless slider. Inside that lovely little homemade dinner roll is a scrumptious little veggie burger topped with smoked Gouda and drizzled with a very tasty tamari soy reduction. More about that reduction later, but the little veggie burger inside our slider was one of the best I’ve had. I got the recipe from the files of the Culinary School of the Rockies (see sidebar), and unlike other veggie burgers I’ve tasted, this one was super moist and flavorful. It also held together really well. Our tasty little mini burger is comprised of a combination of breadcrumbs, eggs, grated carrots, chopped mushrooms, toasted hazelnuts, grated onion and a little milk.

Of course, you can top these sliders with anything you want, but that tamari sauce may have just stolen the show. Although these sliders would be perfect for your next Meatless Monday Night Football party, I think they’re good enough for any party.

Flatten your crustless bread squares with a rolling pin and then top with one piece of American Cheese (do not be tempted to use more cheese, in this case one is enough) Here I used fresh, deli sliced, Land O'Lakes yellow American Cheese - YUM! Roll your cheese squares up and then cook them in a pan with melted butter over medium heat (SEAM SIDE DOWN FIRST TO SECURE THEM) (rolling occasionally in the buttered pan to crisp all sides) until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.

Fresh Food Friday: 100 Healthy Snack Ideas

Happy Friday! I did pretty well this week . . . Tasty Kitchen Blog - StumbleUpon. I first discovered panko bread crumbs back in 1999.

Tasty Kitchen Blog - StumbleUpon

Please don’t ask me how I know that; I just do. I remember vividly reading a recipe that contained panko bread crumbs, and I remember vividly that I was nursing my second baby, and I remember vividly that I was hormonal and desperate, and the next thing I knew I was ordering panko bread crumbs from some market in Chelsea that the magazine recommended. On the phone, of course, because although I had a computer at the time, I certainly wouldn’t have been cool enough to use it to order panko bread crumbs. Plus, I was nursing. Not enough hands. Panko bread crumbs, in a word, are delicious. Panko are Japanese breadcrumbs, and are lighter and flakier than regular breadcrumbs. A Different Way to Serve Fresh Watermelon.
