Chipotle Bacon Sliders (gluten and grain free)

Jump to Recipe

Chipotle Bacon Sliders (gluten and grain free) | savorylotus.coms

My mouth is still watering just thinking about the dinner I made this past weekend: Chipotle Bacon Sliders.

OK, I may be slightly obsessed with sliders right now.  I’ve been traveling a bit and have had the chance to eat at some great restaurants lately.  One thing that I always enjoy is a good slider.  What’s not to love?  Cute little burgers covered in all sorts of tasty yummies like caramelized onions, spicy aioli, avocado, and savory sauces.  I just leave off the bun, ask for extra lettuce, and I’m in heaven.

Last weekend, I was feeling lazy but wanted something really good for dinner.  I looked in the fridge and what did I see?  A pound of local, grass feds beef and a pound of delicious bacon.  PERFECT!

Sliders are a perfect, quick and easy dinner idea.  They don’t require much prep, and they cook up in just minutes.  You can top them with just about anything.  Sauerkraut is my little ones favorite topping right now.

My kids love having mini meals served to them.  I do too.  There is just something satisfying about eating 2 or 3 burgers instead of just one.

So here you go….. my new favorite slider recipe: Chipotle Bacon Sliders.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large yellow onion, sliced into thin rounds
  • 2 TBS butter, ghee (like this), or coconut oil (like this)
  • 1 pound ground meat
  • 4 strips of precooked bacon
  • 1 tsp unrefined sea salt (I use this one)
  • 1/2 tsp chipotle chili powder (like this)
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder (like this one)
  • 1 tsp cumin powder (like this)
  • 1 TBS butter, ghee, or coconut oil for cooking burgers
  • 1 avocado
  • lime juice
  • unrefined sea salt

OPTIONAL:

  • a few dashes of your favorite hot sauce
  • lettuce for garnish

Instructions

TO MAKE CARAMELIZED ONIONS:

  1. Melt the ghee, butter, or coconut oil on medium heat. Add onion rounds and saute slowly until golden brown. Push the onions around a bit to make sure they cook evenly. You can add a tablespoon of water if they begin to stick to pan. Mine usually take 20-25 minutes.
  2. Mash together avocado, lime, and salt in a small bowl. Add optional hot sauce for some heat. Set aside.
  3. Combine ground meat, chopped bacon, salt, and spices in a medium bowl. Mix to combine. Form into 9 small patties.
  4. Heat 1 TBS of fat of choice in skillet on medium to medium high heat. Cook patties 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked the way you like it.
  5. Serve over a bed of fresh lettuce. Top with caramelized onions and avocado.

    Just made these for lunch, and they were delicious! I might add more chipotle chili powder next time, but only to kick up the intensity a bit. Def not required to improve this great recipe. Thank you for sharing! 🙂

👉 do you have digestive issues? 👉 because 👉 do you have digestive issues? 

👉 because of high stress lifestyles, many of us have an overworked, under-functioning digestive system, imbalanced intestinal flora and a continuous flow of intestinal toxins seeping into the bloodstream 😩 • constipation, diarrhea 💩, gas 💨, heartburn 🔥 + IBS are common complaints of many adults in the US

👉 impaired digestion leads to intestinal toxemia • slow digestion + constipation allow bacteria in the gut to act upon undigested food, producing toxic chemicals and gases that damage the mucous lining, resulting in increased intestinal permeability known as leaky gut • leaky gut can lead to inflammation , food sensitivities, autoimmune reactions, anxiety, depression, acne, + so much more

👉 the colon is one of our major drainage pathways for eliminating toxins + wastes out of the body • it’s no surprise that there has been a huge up-tick in colon cancer as environmental toxins + constipation have increased 

👉 what if our medical system had a better understanding of drainage pathways + the importance of digestive health? • what if our primary doctors talked to us about parasites, pathogens, enemas, saunas, hydration, mindful eating, low stomach acid, + real nutrition? • what if our food system wasn’t corporate sponsored and geared towards profits instead of health? 

👉 i personally had to see 5 different integrative + functional medicine practitioners in order to find real healing • none of it was covered by my insurance • not everyone can afford this • how do millions of people in the country suffer from digestive issues (which lead to a whole host of chronic health issues) but we have no real answer, just band-aids? • how much 💰 does the pharmaceutical industry make from these digestive issues • just starting the conversation • bc i see so many people suffering ❤️

👉P.S. my intention is not to harp on conventional medicine • i’ve been an RN for almost 17 years working bedside with women + their families • i’m speaking from my personal experience of seeing my patient population get sicker + sicker over the years • we are not doing it right • we are missing the mark 🎯
🎂🎂 i’m always looking for a reason to cele 🎂🎂 i’m always looking for a reason to celebrate • finding those small pockets of joy ✨✨ • so when someone i LOVE has a birthday, this is the cake i like to make ❤️ • BROWNIE BOTTOM ICE CREAM CAKE • two layers of your favorite ice cream nested on top of the most delicious gluten + grain free (+ vegan) brownie layer topped with fresh whipped cream, berries, + shaved chocolate • so easy to make and so fun to eat • to make dairy, use dairy free ice cream + coconut whipped cream
