We are taking blending to a whole new level! Last month we brought you blended grapes, but this month, we busted out our blenders for MUSHROOMS! The blended mushroom craze has really started to take off, and thanks to To-Jo Mushrooms, we were able to jump on that bandwagon with blended mushroom sliders!

These sliders are super easy, fun to make, and of course delicious! They are great for mushroom lovers AND those little tikes who may not be the biggest fans (YET!).

That's right, Moms, these sliders are the perfect way to get the health benefits of mushrooms into your picky kid's diets. Since the mushrooms are blended into the beef, your kids will never know they are there!

We hope you'll enjoy the last month of summer with these yummy, easy-to-make blended mushroom sliders! If you make it at home, make sure to share your pictures with us on Facebook!
