Serving Size: 6 Sliders
Ingredients
- 12 Sweet Potato Slices
- 1 package Jackfruit BBQ
Spices
- Cayenne
- Salt & Pepper
Toppings
- Avocado Mayo
- Spring Salad Mix
- Sliced Green Onions
- Jalapeños
Instructions
Cook the Sweet Potato
- Start off by preheating your oven to 425° (I love using my toaster oven for this because it heats up in seconds!).
- Try to use thicker sweet potatoes. Wash and then slice your sweet potato into 1/2 inch discs. Depending on how many sliders you’re making, you’ll want less or more slices. For two servings, I cut about 12 slices.12 Sweet Potato Slices
- Place in a baking dish and brush/spray each side with avocado oil. Sprinkle in your spices (be careful with the cayenne – it’s spicy!). Roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes on each side.Cayenne, Salt & Pepper
Cook the Jackfruit BBQ
- Super easy vegan pulled pork is to use a simple premade jackfruit bbq! I grabbed my packet and added it to my large pan (no oil required).1 package Jackfruit BBQ
- Use a spoon or fork to break up the chunks so the jackfruit is more “shredded”. Cook for roughly 5-7 minutes or medium heat.
Build Your Sliders
- Now we put our sliders together! Add some green leaves to a sweet potato bun, then your Jackfruit BBQ, and some mayo. Then garnish with green onions & jalapeños. Add whatever you like! I winged it!Avocado Mayo, Spring Salad Mix, Sliced Green Onions, Jalapeños
Extra Notes & Tips
- If you’re not a fan of sweet potato as your “bun”, you most certainly can use regular slider buns for this recipe!
- Like I mentioned before, you can totally whip up your own jackfruit bbq for this recipe. Here’s a simple yet tasty recipes by Brittany.
- Any mayo can be used for this recipe but to keep it vegan, I highly suggest this brand! You can also make your own vegan mayo which is definitely super easy as well!
- I’ll be honest, these sliders taste the best when fresh! Once cooked, the sweet potato won’t remain as crispy and the jackfruit will cool and start to harden. I suggest only making as much as needed but if you do happen to have leftovers, store the sweet potato in an airtight container and the jackfruit in a separate container. When ready to enjoy again, roast the sweet potato in the oven similarly and reheat the jackfruit in your pan.
