Greek Bison Sliders

• 1 lb. ground grass-fed bison (or grass-fed lamb)
• 1/2 cup frozen spinach, thawed and sqeezed dry
• 1/2 cup feta cheese
• 1/4 cup kalamata olives, chopped
• 1/2 tsp. pepper
• 1 tsp. garlic, chopped
• 1/2 tsp. dill
• 1/2 tsp. orgeno
• Tomato, sliced
• Red onion, sliced
• Cucumber, sliced
• Slider buns*

Sauce:

• 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tsp. lemon zest
• 2 tsp. lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp. dill
• 1/2 tsp. mint
• salt and pepper, to taste

Preheat grill to medium-high.  In a bowl, mix together: bison, spinach, feta, olives, pepper, garlic, dill, and oregano.  Form into patties.  Place patties on a hot grill, turn only once.  Bison is very lean so it will cook quickly!  Be sure not to overcook!

For the sauce: mix all ingredients and allow to set for at least a 1/2 hour.

*This recipe used gluten-free dinner rolls as slider buns made by Outside The Breadbox.  Their products can be purchased at a lovely little store in Loveland, CO called Granny's Gluten Free Zone.
