French Dip Sliders

provolone cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: cheddar cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat while maintaining meltiness.

beef broth

🥗Healthier: homemade broth

💰Cheaper: vegetable broth

Vegetable broth is often less expensive and still flavorful.

roast beef

🥗Healthier: lean turkey

💰Cheaper: shredded chicken

Shredded chicken is a more affordable protein option.

slider rolls

🥗Healthier: whole grain rolls

💰Cheaper: white bread

Whole grain rolls add fiber, while white bread is typically cheaper.

Cut small rolls down the center and remove the tops.

Chop sweet onion and caramelize it in a skillet with olive oil and a pat of butter over medium-low heat.

Add salt and pepper to the onions while they cook until they are golden brown and sweet.

In a separate pot, heat about 3 cups of unsalted beef stock and add the Lipton's onion soup mix.

Season the beef stock with herbs de Provence, dried thyme, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and a splash of soy sauce, and let it simmer on low heat.

Once the onions are caramelized, turn off the heat and chop the thin sliced roast beef into smaller pieces.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Take the provolone cheese, cut it in half, and fold it into quarters, placing the rounded side toward the middle of the bun.

Mix melted butter with the onion soup mix to create a seasoned butter, and brush it on top of the buns.

Assemble the sliders by placing the chopped roast beef and caramelized onions on the bottom half of the buns, then add the cheese on top.

Cover the assembled sliders and bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes.

After baking, let the sliders cool for about 10-15 minutes before serving.
