CRANBERRY TURKEY SLIDERS (MINI BURGERS)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Open and separate biscuit dough into 10 pieces as directed. PINCH each piece of dough in thirds (don't roll out). Very gently roll into a smoother ball, to make 3 mini buns from each piece. Place on parchment paper lined baking sheet. Lightly brush each one with water and sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon sesame seeds. Bake until golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
• At the same time in oven, cook 30 meatballs according to package directions, 12 to 15 minutes, turning halfway through cooking time. While still hot, toss meatballs with 1/2 cup cranberry sauce adn salt and pepper to taste.
• Cut each bun in half. Spoon a little cranberry sauce on each bun bottom, top with 3 spinach leaves folded in half and a small slice of brie cheese. Top each with a meatball, cap with bun top and secure with a small bamboo or wooden skewer.

TURKEY CRANBERRY SLIDERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Put the breadcrumbs in a large bowl and drizzle the milk over the top; stir and let soak for 5 minutes. Add the ground turkey, parsley, ground ginger, garlic powder, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Divide the mixture into 8 portions, roll into balls and pat into patties.
• Arrange the patties in a lightly oiled 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Bake for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, gently warm the cranberry sauce with a few tablespoons of water to loosen.
• Spoon half of the warm sauce on top of the patties. Return the cranberry sauce to a simmer and remove from the heat. Return the patties to the oven and continue baking until browned, glazed and cooked through, about 20 minutes more.

• Spoon the remaining cranberry sauce onto the bottom halves of the rolls. Top each roll with a patty and some arugula. Serve warm.

CRANBERRY BBQ SAUCE TURKEY SLIDERS

Steps:

• For the sauce: Whisk together the vinegar, mustard, oil, celery, apples, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Set aside while you make the sliders.
• For the sliders: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the cranberry sauce, ketchup, vinegar, Dijon, Worcestershire, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and carefully pour the sauce into a food processor or blender and process until smooth.
• Place the turkey into a large bowl and pour the sauce over the turkey, stirring to coat evenly with the sauce. To serve, spoon a 1/4 cup of the turkey onto the bottom half of the rolls, garnish with 2 tablespoons of the slaw and top with the top half of the roll.
• Combine the cranberries, maple syrup cinnamon, orange zest and orange juice in a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Turn the burner off. Using the back of your spoon, lightly mash the cranberries to desired consistency. Chill until ready to serve.
