Easy Cheesy Taco Sliders

This post brought to you Sargento(®). The opinions and text are all mine.

Whether you’re hosting a homestyle fiesta or entertaining friends on game day, these Easy Cheesy Taco Sliders will be the star of the gathering. To prepare, slider rolls are stuffed with taco seasoned ground beef, then sandwiched together with two heavenly layers of Sargento® Blends™ 4 Cheese Southwest Slices. After being brushed with butter, they’re baked until the rolls are golden and the cheese has melted; turning them into a gooey extravaganza.

Easy Cheesy Taco Sliders

My family loves cheese in any and all flavors. If a dish is filled with cheese, sprinkled or stuffed with cheese, it’s a given, they’ll devour it. They also love tacos so, after browsing the sliced cheese in the dairy aisle at my local grocery store, I was delighted to find this amazing new Sargento Southwestern cheese product. Cheese forms the edible “glue” to keep these South-of-the-border inspired,  taco sliders intact. How to make simple Cheesy Taco Sliders: (Scroll down for full printable recipe.)

• Prepare Pan – Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
• Vegetables – In a large skillet heat a few drizzles of olive oil. Cook diced onion and peppers over medium-high heat season with garlic salt. 
• Ground Beef – Add ground beef to skillet. Continue to cook until no pink remains. Drain any excess fat from the pan. 
• Sauce – Add taco seasoning, lemon pepper and taco sauce. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. 
• Butter – Meanwhile, mix melted butter with 1/4 tsp of garlic salt. Set aside.
• Rolls – Separate rolls removing the top from the bottom half. Center bottom half on baking sheet. Cover with 8 slices of cheese, cutting pieces to fit.
• Filling – Spread the taco filling evenly over the cheese. Arrange remaining cheese slices over filling. 
• Butter – Brush cheese with melted butter. Cover with top half of rolls. Brush tops and sides of rolls with remaining butter. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan, if desired.
• Bake – Cover loosely with foil. Bake until the cheese has melted and tops are golden. 
• Serve warm with assorted toppings, if desired.
