Nothing says summer like a cute little burger slider straight from the grill. I created a new recipe that puts a fun spin on the traditional sliders. These Tosotone Burger Sliders with Jalapeno Relish will easily become a new summertime favorite at your house. These cuties are Whole30 and Paleo compliant along with gluten and dairy free.
The crispy plantains fried up in coconut oil makes the perfect crispy bun that adds even more flavor to the burger patty. Want even more flavor? I got you covered with this delicious and spicy jalapeno relish that is the icing on the cake. It is the PERFECT addition to tostones and ground beef patties.
This relish screams summer and can be added to any dish to add more flavor. It is a bit spicy, so use with caution. This really is one of the best summertime meals that will turn any boring BBQ into a fun party. I have a 3 year old that can’t really handle the relish and that is okay. I serve this to her with ketchup and remove the relish and she LOVES them. Recreate this recipe to fit your needs.
