Taco Sliders Recipe
What makes a taco better? Taking the fixings, sandwiching them between bread and baking them. That my friends is pure taco heaven! When you pull the finished sliders apart and see all that melty cheese, you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about!
This recipe is fun and comforting and perfect for summer get-togethers, game days, or even just a quick weeknight meal. The whole family will be begging for seconds!
Now, I don’t know about you guys, but I always enjoy a little heat on my tacos. Live dangerously, am I right?
And since I have this terribly painful habit of rubbing my eyes after cutting jalapeños, I try to sub out fresh pepper for jarred pepper when I can and when it works for the recipe. I just can’t say no to fewer tears and more flavor!
These Easy Taco Sliders are super tasty and with a little prep work ahead of time, you can have these babies reading in about 30 minutes! Want to see just how easy these sliders are to make for your next event or weeknight dinner? Check out the video below!
I love the way the butter allows the bottoms of these Easy Taco Sliders to crisp up, so it supports all the goodness on top of it, while the top half of the rolls stay soft.
You can make your taco meat however you usually would and can add any extra toppings you want to the mix! With tacos, the possibilities are endless!
