I am a big fan of Jackfruit….smother some BBQ sauce on it and you can’t go wrong! I am looking forward to making this easy recipe at home this summer. Quick and easy is my way of doing things, so it’s the perfect dish for me! And the pickles too!
LET’S MAKE JACKFRUIT SLIDERS!
Jackfruit sliders are simple to make and once smothered in BBQ sauce it is the perfect ingredients to mimick pulled “pork” with its texture and ability to absorb flavor so well. This recipe is a piece of cake to throw together so there are no excuses to not give it a try. Your non-vegan friends and family will likely fall in love with this sandwich that is bursting with sloppy and messy flavor!

- 1 1/2 English Cucumbers
