Directions

1. Preheat the grill or oven to 350°F.
2. Combine ground bison with green onions, paprika, cayenne pepper, and cilantro. Form into 8 small patties.
3. Clean the mushrooms and remove the stems. Carefully scrape out the black gills from the caps. Lightly spray with olive oil and grill or bake face down for 8 minutes.
4. Place the bison patties on the grill and cook for 10 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until desired doneness.
5. Cut each cheese slice into 4 squares. Top each slider with a cheese square and allow it to melt for 1-2 minutes.
6. Assemble the sliders by adding a dollop of Dijon mustard inside one mushroom cap, followed by a tomato slice, a bison patty, and the other mushroom cap. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.
