Burger Slider Skewers
These burger bites make the perfect low-carb appetizer to please everyone from age six to age sixty, just set out some ketchup and mustard for dipping and watch them disappear! More party apps I love are Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls, Jalepeño Popper “Nachos”, and Baked Sweet Potato Skins.

My husband loves bacon burgers, so when I saw these in New York Times Best Selling Cookbook, Danielle Walker’s Against All Grain Celebrations I knew I had to make them! Her book is filled with a year of gluten-free, dairy-free, paleo recipes for every occasion I knew I had to make them! Perfect for the Superbowl for an easy appetizer, or even great during in the warmer months for backyard parties. I slightly adapted them using less bacon and cooked them on my grill pan since it’s too cold to use my grill but you can also make them outside on the grill.
