Ingredients
  

12 slices of mini sandwich bread (such as slider buns)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon (optional)

1/4 cup diced jalapeños (fresh or pickled)

1/2 cup nacho cheese sauce

1/4 cup diced tomatoes

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Optional toppings: sour cream, guacamole, or salsa for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat Your Grill: Prepare your grill or a grill pan over medium-low heat.

    Assemble the Sliders: Take 6 slices of the mini sandwich bread and layer each one with a mix of cheddar and mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle a little bacon and jalapeños on top of the cheese, then add a dollop of nacho cheese sauce. Place another slice of bread on top to create a sandwich.

      Butter the Bread: Brush the top of each sandwich with melted butter to ensure a golden, crispy finish when grilled.

        Grill the Sliders: Place the sandwiches on the grill, buttered side down. Grill for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese begins to melt. Carefully flip the sliders and butter the top side. Grill for another 3-4 minutes, ensuring both sides are crispy and the cheese is gooey.

          Add Toppings: Once the sliders are perfectly grilled, transfer them to a serving platter. Top each one with a sprinkle of diced tomatoes and fresh cilantro.

            Serve with Dips: Serve the Mini Grilled Cheese Nacho Sliders warm with sides of sour cream, guacamole, or salsa for a delightful dipping experience.
