Lamb Slider Lettuce Wraps with Whipped Feta Spread

1. If using a grill, preheat your grill to the highest setting.
2. Add the ground lamb to a bowl and add in the garlic, onions, salt, pepper, mustard and paprika. Stir to mix, but only until just combined, then form sliders (I like mine about 2 inches in diameter) of equal size. Cook the sliders either on the grill or in a skillet over medium-high heat until they are cooked to your desired doneness – I like about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
3. To assemble the sliders, add a few spoonfuls of the whipped artihcoke feta into the lettuce cup. Top that with a few slices of red onion and some sun dried tomatoes. Add a slider (or two!) on top and then sprinkle with some fresh parsley. Serve with pita chips!

whipped feta with artichokes

1. Add crumbled feta to a food processor and pulse until small crumbs remain. Add in cream cheese and puree for 4-5 minutes, scraping down the sides when necessary, until feta is super creamy. Transfer the feta to a bowl and stir in the artichokes. The spread will become creamier and more spreadable once some of the oil or brine on the artichokes is mixed in.
