Bean and Slaw Sliders

(serves 4, adapted from budget bytes)

Ingredients:

For the beans:

- 1 T olive oil

- 1/3 c diced onion (frozen is fine, no need to defrost)

- 1 t minced garlic, jarred is fine

- 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained

- 1 can pinto beans, rinsed and drained

- 1/2 c bbq sauce

- 1/2 t smoked paprika

- salt and pepper

- 4 sandwich buns of your choice 

For the slaw:

- about 7 oz shredded coleslaw mix (about 1/2 bag)

- 2 green onions, cut up small with scissors

- 1/2 T honey

- 1/3 c plain yogurt (I used whole milk, you can also use a vegan yogurt or mayo, or skip this altogether and make a vinegar slaw)

- 1-2 t dijon mustard

- 1-2 t cider vinegar

- salt and pepper

Instructions:

- For the slaw: combine all ingredients except the slaw and the green onions in a small bowl until smooth. Pour over slaw and green onions and toss well. 

- For the beans: heat the oil, garlic, onion, and spices and cook, stirring, until the onion starts to become translucent. Add the beans and the bbq sauce and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Season to taste. 

- To serve: put equal parts slaw and beans on each bun. Provide forks and knives, because it's messy!

Enjoy,
