These small hamburger sliders are topped off with warm nacho cheese and fresh pico de gallo. If you are looking for an excellent recipe for game day, you will probably want to give this one a try. The hamburger patties are flavored with taco seasoning and you can either cook them on the stove-top or grill them on an outdoor grill. The nacho cheese is very easy to prepare because it is just warmed on the stovetop. The pico de gallo will take a little bit of work chopping up the different ingredients, but for fresh pico, it is well worth the effort. These nacho burger sliders go great served with tortilla chips. Enjoy!
