These sliders are absolutely packed with flavor – pickled vegetables, banh mi spices, and cilantro. We can easily keep them under 100 calories by using a lettuce wrap or a daikon radish “tortilla”. But if you want a more tradition preparation, serve these sliders on a piece of crusty French bread, just add 50 calories.
