Take sliders to an all new level with the addition of bacon and ground pork. Mayonnaise gets a bit of zip from ranch dip mix. Your guests will surely make these disappear fast.—Damali Campbell, New York, New York

Spring Mix

Often labeled mesclun greens, this mixture of small, tender young salad greens and often tender herbs is available year-round in supermarkets. The mix can include such salad green varieties as oak leaf, mache, arugula, frisee, mizuna, endive and radicchio. Spring mix will stay fresh in the refrigerator for about a week. Wash, dry and dress these tender greens just before serving.
