Mushroom Bison Sliders

Try this quick and easy low-carb mushroom bison slider recipe I recently made.

Whether you’re gearing up for a big game, a party, or just a family dinner, sliders are always a hit. And if you’re trying to go a little lighter on the calories, then making healthy practical substitutions is a must. Swap ground meat for a leaner version and swap the bread buns for mushroom caps.

Of the ingredients, you will need lean ground bison meat, large mushroom caps, reduced fat sharp cheddar, tomato slices, maché rosettes, Dijon mustard, and some seasonings.

I used Spice Cave Fire & Land seasoning, but if you don’t find it, you can use smoked paprika and cayenne as a substitute. You will also need some green onion and chopped cilantro.

When choosing mushrooms, pay attention to the size and shape that would suit you best for the sliders.

It’s very simple to prepare this dish, but you have to be careful with the mushrooms. First, you need to wash them and gently scoop out the inside of the mushrooms with a spoon. Oil them and they are ready to grill. Grill them for a few minutes until soft and set aside to cool.

The next step is making bison patties. Mix the meat with the seasonings and form patties. Grill them for 10 minutes on one side, then turn them over and grill for a few more minutes, depending on the desired readiness. In the meantime, cut the cheese and put it over the patties towards the end of grilling and let the cheese melt.

Assemble burgers from grilled patties, mushroom caps, maché, tomato, and a bit of yellow mustard. Fasten them with wooden sticks so they don’t fall apart, and serve while still warm.
