It's the WEEKEND -- and who couldn't resist sliders?
Of course, if you don't want turkey or beef, try them instead using portobello mushrooms.
The flavouring makes the difference on these, of course 😉

And don't worry about the amount of prep time - it takes an hour for marinating onions. The rest of the prep is 15 minutes. EASY.
