Torta Slider
This LA-inspired Steak Torta is bold, bright, and bursting with flavor. Juicy marinated steak is grilled and layered with creamy refried beans, avocado slices, Smash Kitchen Spicy Mayonnaise, and tangy tomatillo salsa. With fresh lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese all packed inside a toasted roll, it’s a west coast favorite you’ll keep coming back to.
