I'm always looking for ways to make my favorite foods more approachable - especially to my two year old. Sliders work wonders for any sandwich - making them cute enough to encourage most kids to take a bite. I like to cook Sockeye salmon in smaller pieces regularly - the shape of the filet (thinner on one end) makes it difficult t cook the whole filet properly. Cutting the fillet into two makes it easier to ensure this lean meat isn't over cooked. The "B" is of course - bacon. the "L" traditionally would be lettuce but here I made a really vegetal watercress avocado spread. The "T" is for tomato - since its not summer I used good canned tomatoes to make a sweet chunky tomato jam. Finally - "s" - salmon - use your favorite type of salmon filet. For the rolls, I use store bought dinner rolls. The soft roll is key because instead of squeezing out the fixins and salmon on one side as you bite - the soft dough just molds around the filling. This recipe also works to make full sandwiches rather than sliders.
