We just LOVE sliders at my house. They are not made only on game-days, sliders make a regular appearance on my dinner table. I love how versatile they are, so many flavor combos. And it allows everyone to eat as many or as few as they like depending on how hungry they are. Sliders are perfect for feeding a crowd!

What Makes These Steak Sliders Special?

The secret is in the cowboy butter. Melted butter infused with garlic, herbs, a hint of spice, and a tangy kick that seeps into every bite of steak and bread. When paired with thinly sliced steak and perfectly melted cheese, it transforms simple sliders into something unforgettable.

Ingredients You’ll Need

• boneless sirloin steak 
• oil
• salt/pepper
• unsalted butter
• garlic
• Worcestershire sauce 
• honey Dijon mustard
• paprika
• cayenne pepper
• fresh parsley
• red pepper flakes
• onion
• slider buns
• Gouda slices 

Tips for Perfect Sliders

Use high heat for the steak to lock in flavor without overcooking. Don’t skip the resting step this keeps the meat juicy. And be generous with the cowboy butter; it’s what ties everything together.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pound boneless sirloin steak
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tbsp salt
• 1 tbsp pepper
• 1 stick of unsalted butter
• 4 tbsp minced garlic
• 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tbsp honey Dijon mustard

Instructions

• Trim fat off the steak as needed. Put one tbsp of oil on one side of the steak, rub all over. Repeat with the other tbsp of oil on the other side. Sprinkle all over with salt and pepper and rub in as well. Set aside.
• In a large sauce pan add in the stick of butter, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, honey Dijon, and the seasonings. Melt over a low heat and stir until combined. Once melted add about 1/4 cup of the sauce to a small bowl and set aside.

These Strawberry Oatmeal Vegan Breakfast Bars were a big hit with my family and the ladies at my Mom’s work. The best part is that they are a convenient and nutritious breakfast option. I need easy breakfast because as many of you know, I am NOT a morning person! That is why I love grab and go breakfasts. Not because I am running out of the house first thing in the morning but because I am super lazy before my first cup of coffee.

These breakfast bars are fantastic with your cup of morning coffee.

It took me a few tries to get the consistency of the oatmeal bars right. I wanted slightly chewy without being overly moist. These are it! Firm enough to stay together but not hard as a rock. They are between the texture of a granola bar and an oatmeal cookie.

Mix up the oatmeal bar ingredients, slather on that luscious strawberry mixture then bake. Super simple and delicious!

Cut them into squares or bars and serve as a breakfast or snack. With school right around the corner, these bars will be great for packing lunches!

And they look really pretty too. I personally don’t mind eating ugly food. So the fact that these Strawberry Oatmeal Vegan Breakfast Bars are gorgeous is just a bonus❤️

Loaded with Flavor, Gone in Minutes.

This crowd-pleasing crack dip combines the richness of cream cheese and sour cream with the zesty punch of ranch seasoning. Add crispy bacon, sharp cheddar cheese, and a touch of green onion, and you’ve got a flavor explosion that hits every craving: salty, creamy, smoky, and tangy all at once.

It’s also incredibly versatile. Serve it cold for a refreshing, creamy bite or bake it until hot and bubbly for a comforting, melty version. Pair it with crackers, tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or even spread it on sandwiches and wraps for an extra flavor boost.
