Kid Approved Dinner
I found this recipe on Pinterest a few years ago and it quickly became a family favorite. It’s one of those meals I can make on busy weeknights without overthinking anything. My toddler is in his picky stage, but he loves this one.
These “white trash sliders” are simple and budget friendly. They also work in a lot of different ways, which makes them great when you need options. You can turn the filling into a dip, use any buns you have, add noodles for a homemade hamburger helper, or eat it on its own. It reheats well and makes enough for leftovers.
Save this for nights when you need something easy that still feels like a win.
