Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground lamb
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 head of iceberg or butter lettuce for wrapping
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup whole sun dried tomatoes
  • chopped fresh parsley for topping
  • whipped feta with artichokes
  • 6 ounces feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons whipped cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup marinated artichokes drained and chopped
  • A pinch of black pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  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
    Cup of Yum
  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.
