Fondue Sliders with Fries: Recipe

 So many people have expressed an interest in this little meal I make. Although my husband and kids are not too fond of it, for different reasons, I love it! It is probably one of my favorites and I can make it just for me when I need (without the onions and fries). But still, even the dipping sauce for the fries I can make within a minute if we are making something else with fries.

• 1 pound ground beef
• 12 Brioche rolls
• 1 large red onion
