Ingredients:

• 2 large zucchinis
• 1 lb ground beef
• 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Olive oil for grilling
• Toothpicks or small skewers for assembly

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Zucchini:
   • Wash and slice the zucchinis into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
   • Brush each zucchini slice lightly with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
2. Prepare the Beef Patties:
   • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, minced garlic, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
   • Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
   • Form the mixture into small patties, about the size of the zucchini slices.
3. Grill the Zucchini:
   • Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
   • Grill the zucchini slices for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
   • Set aside on a plate.
4. Cook the Beef Patties:
   • On the same grill or grill pan, cook the beef patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
   • In the last minute of cooking, place a small amount of shredded cheese on each patty and allow it to melt.
5. Assemble the Sliders:
   • To assemble the sliders, place a grilled zucchini slice on the bottom.
   • Add a beef patty with melted cheese on top of the zucchini slice.
   • Place another grilled zucchini slice on top to create a “bun.”
   • Secure each slider with a toothpick or small skewer.
6. Serve:
   • Arrange the sliders on a serving platter and serve immediately.
