Summer is in serious full effect. Like we should probably stop eating carbs… at least for today? Laguna Beach has opened the flood gates of tourists and summer break children and it is getting cray. Restaurants are packed and expensive so eating at home has never looked so good. I like to make my home dining experience top notch, and let me tell you, it’s not too hard! I wanted to make a greek inspired dish that was quick and full of flavor. These sliders take minutes to whip together and the tzatziki was even easier. Wrap everything up in some beautiful red leaf lettuce and you have yourself a quality dinner that is low carb, low cal & full of flavor!
First mix together your turkey, red onion, dill, garlic, parsley, salt & pepper.
Lay slider in lettuce.

I love this idea, very original and summery and relatively easy. I think I will make these and take some to lunch at work the next day!! Great Pictures.
Hey! I found you over at the YHL forums – this recipe looks delicious. Seriously – I’m always looking for new ideas with ground turkey – can’t wait to try it!
I hope you’ll stop over to take a look at my blog 🙂
Thanks so much for finding me! I checked out your site and that move is so exciting!! Good luck with all of your improvements I look forward to watching!
This was such a yummy, low-carb meal! What a nice way to use that ground turkey that I always have in the freezer. My kids both loved the sliders without the sauce and the grown-ups loved it all. I served them on whole wheat English muffins for the kids. I will definitely be making these again!
Could I make these on a Ninja grill?
yes, 100%!!
