Banh Mi Sliders

January 19, 2021 By Shannah Coe 2 Comments

Banh Mi sliders are the perfect little sandwich for crowds, lunches or just because you like mini sandwiches!

With game day coming up in mere weeks, it is time to start thinking about what to munch on during the commercial breaks. If I am being completely honest, I only watch the Super Bowl for the commercials and to eat all the yummy food.

While I know we won’t have a part this year, I will definitely be making tons of finger foods anyways and these Banh Mi sliders will for sure be on the menu.

So, what is a Banh Mi sandwich?

Technically, Banh Mi is a Vietnamese word that means bread. In Vietnamese cuisine, it usually refers to a sub like sandwich served on a baguette style roll.

Clearly, these banh mi sliders are not completely authentic but they the flavor profile is very similar to most banh mi sandwiches. Most of the ones I have had feature either sliced or pulled pork and so I went with pulled pork for the sliders.

One of the key components of the traditional Vietnamese sandwich is pickled daikon, carrots and crisp cucumbers. That is quite a lot to put onto a little slider so I focused on the cucumbers. They are quick pickled so they retain the pickled flavor but stay really crisp.

If you prefer to do daikon or carrots (or both!), you can totally make that swap.

This banh mi slider recipe uses the basics from my banh mi tacos and just makes them into little handheld pieces of deliciousness instead of putting into tortillas.

If you love this banh mi recipe, you should check out these other great ideas for game day and other similar parties:

  • Banh Mi Flatbread
  • Candied Cayenne Bacon (and Brie)
  • Spicy Raspberry Party Meatballs
  • Sausage Stuffed Mini Peppers
  • Air Fryer Potato Skins

If you make this game day slider recipe or any recipe from the blog, I’d love to hear about your experience. Let me know in the comments or snap a photo and tag it #MySuburbanKitchen on Instagram or Twitter.

Yield: 12 Sliders

Homemade Chocolate Syrup Recipe

November 24, 2015 By Trina Miner Leave a Comment

 
 
Have I mentioned that my husband is a marathon runner?
 
He probably wouldn’t tell you himself unless it came up in conversation. He is too humble for that. This accomplishment is one of the many things that I love about him.
 
His reason for running….

“…because I can”.
 
When you ask if I will be joining him in this personal journey of new distances and times beat, my reply will be…
 
“I only run for chocolate”.

My Very Own Piece of Magnolia Market

July 28, 2015 By Trina Miner Leave a Comment

close up

Usually, birthdays are amazing, exciting moments for me. This year my boys made me gorgeous cards and put them on my pillow to find when I woke up. My parents and in-laws sent my mad money to buy something special. My hubby asked and asked and asked what I wanted for my birthday dinner.

However; this year I had no clue. In fact, I really wasn’t hungry.

I’m not sure what it is, but this year, I really wasn’t into the whole birthday celebration.

DIY Chicken Wire Message Board

May 26, 2015 By Trina Miner 5 Comments

Pin

My husband has been asking to build a garden full of fresh vegetables for a long time now. I have always been in favor, but we could never find a place for it. After thinking on it for awhile, we found a spot in the front yard and Matt got to work.

He up-cycled old pieces of wood, our wonderful neighbors gave us some dirt that was left over from their front yard project, we bought some chicken wire to keep the deer out. Then we all went and picked out the fresh, organic veggies….beans, watermelon, strawberries, lettuce, cucumbers.

Oh, I can’t wait to have strawberries and lettuce!

And as Matt was walking around the perimeter of the garden putting up the fence, I noticed that there was going to be left over wire.

The wheels started turning and I knew I would be putting that to good use.

So I searched the basement for an unused frame and made a few Miner adjustments. “Lettuce” get to work, shall we? Sorry, I couldn’t resist!

Changing Tastes Means House Upgrades

March 29, 2013 By Shannah Leave a Comment

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Moen, Incorporated for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

We moved into our house just about 3 years ago.  When we bought the house, we immediately painted all the walls and made some pretty big decorating decisions prior to living in the house.

Well, a ton has changed since then.  Our tastes have definitely changed from a more box store catalog look to a preferences that skew to a more collected look where everything isn't matchy/matchy. 

One of the rooms getting the biggest changes is the kitchen.  When the house was built and all the interior  choices were made, the buyer was single guy with no eye for any kind of design at all.  The cabinets match the floors and absolutely DO NOT match the countertops.  We've slowly been making changes in the room which started with cabinet knobs and then furniture. 

The next change I have my eye on is the faucet.  We currently have the original builder's faucet and it is starting to show some major wear.  One of the faucets I have had my eye on is the Kiran Spot Resist one-handle pulldown kitchen faucet.

I love the stainless steel finsih on the faucet and feel it will go much better in our updated kitchen than the current dark {almost black} faucet we have right now.  Plus, the faucet is spot and fingerprint resistant which is perfect because I always have little kiddos touching it or getting water everywhere. 
 photo SpotResistregjpg_zps01cfd3d1.jpg

The faucet has an awesome high arch which is definitely own trend.  The pulldown design makes it extremely functional and useful for when I am doing dishes or working in the sink.

With the Moen name behind it, I know I am buying a quality product too.   I have even been out to Lowe's to check out the faucet and am saving my pennies for the purchase 🙂

I started following Moen on Facebook and Twitter.  Following your favorite brands through social media is a great way to keep up with info on their newest products and get tips on using the products.
