## Why Sliders Are the Perfect Party Food
Sliders are miniature sandwiches, usually about 2-3 inches wide, designed for sharing and snacking. They’re perfect for:
* **Portion Control**: Guests can enjoy multiple flavors without overeating.
* **Socializing**: Easy to hold and eat while mingling.
* **Presentation**: A tray of sliders looks inviting and festive.
* **Customizability**: Each slider can be tailored to different tastes.

## How to Make Ahead and Store
To prepare ahead, assemble the sliders without baking, cover tightly with plastic wrap and foil, and refrigerate overnight. When ready to serve, bake as directed, adding a few extra minutes if baking straight from the fridge.
Leftover sliders can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to preserve texture.
