Thanksgiving Sliders

Thanksgiving Sliders

Description

Thanksgiving is a time for gathering with family, sharing gratitude, and of course, indulging in delicious food. However, once the big meal is over, there’s often an abundance of leftovers. Rather than repeating the same plates of turkey and stuffing, why not transform those holiday leftovers into something fun and flavorful? Enter Thanksgiving Sliders—a bite-sized, handheld take on the traditional feast. These sliders are not only incredibly easy to make, but they also pack all the deliciousness of Thanksgiving into one small, convenient package. With layers of tender turkey, savory stuffing, cranberry sauce, and a touch of gravy between soft rolls, these sliders are the perfect post-holiday treat.

Ingredients

Preparation Method

Prepare the Rolls: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the slider rolls in half horizontally, keeping them attached so they form a connected “sheet” of rolls. Place the bottom halves of the rolls in a baking dish.

Layer the Fillings: Start by evenly layering the turkey over the bottom halves of the rolls. Next, spoon the stuffing over the turkey, spreading it out evenly. Drizzle the cranberry sauce across the stuffing layer, followed by a light drizzle of gravy to tie everything together.

Top the Sliders: Place the top halves of the rolls back on, pressing gently to help the layers stick together. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter, which will give them a nice golden crust as they bake.

Bake and Serve: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the sliders are warmed through and the tops are golden brown. If you prefer a little extra crispness, uncover the dish for the last few minutes of baking. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips and Conclusion

For an added twist, you can customize your Thanksgiving Sliders with different leftover sides. Add a layer of mashed potatoes for extra heartiness, or sprinkle in some crispy fried onions for a bit of crunch. You could even use a different sauce in place of cranberry—barbecue sauce, chipotle mayo, or a honey mustard drizzle would all add unique flavors to your sliders. The beauty of this recipe is its flexibility. It’s an excellent way to use up leftovers without feeling like you’re eating the same meal twice.

Thanksgiving Sliders are the ultimate leftover solution, combining all the best parts of the holiday meal into a convenient, hand-held snack. Whether you’re serving them the day after Thanksgiving or bringing them to a holiday gathering, these sliders are sure to be a hit with family and friends. They’re easy to make, fun to eat, and endlessly customizable. Plus, they offer a great way to get creative with leftovers, turning the typical post-Thanksgiving fare into something special. So the next time you’re wondering what to do with that extra turkey and stuffing, give these sliders a try—you won’t be disappointed!
