Follow these simple steps to create your own batch of mouth-watering lentil and spinach sliders:

1. Mash the Lentils: In a large bowl, use a fork to mash the cooked lentils until they are a coarse paste.
2. Combine Ingredients: Add the chopped spinach, breadcrumbs, grated cheese (if using), finely chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Mix everything well until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
3. Shape the Patties: Using your hands, shape the mixture into small, evenly sized patties that will fit nicely on your whole wheat buns.
4. Cook the Sliders: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sliders to the skillet and cook each side for 4-5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
5. Serve: Place the cooked sliders on whole wheat buns and add your favorite toppings, such as sliced avocado or tomato, for an extra burst of flavor.
