Burgers

So most kids will eat a regular burger. Every now and then I even crave a big burger but I wanted to work on a burger that would be a little lighter.  Salmon burgers.  No need to tell your kids there is anything different.  Just tell them it's a burger and see what happens!

Here are the ingredients I used. As some of you know I am terrible about measuring and doing things by the book.  I make it up as I go along so if you have any questions just let me know!  Ingredients...




I took the salmon and chopped is as finely as my patience would allow.  Then I added about a cup of panko bread crumbs, a 1/2 cup of feta, a couple mini red and yellow peppers chopped finely and an egg (not pictured). You want the consistency of regular burgers. Spray your nonstick skillet and turn your temp to med-high.  Sear your burgers in the pan for about 4min per side or until cooked through.  They will feel firm in the center.



While my burgers were cooking I made a yummy sauce for them.  I combined shredded cucumber, greek yogurt, a dash of lemon juice, garlic & pepper in a bowl.  Done!



Once your burgers are done you are free to make them how you like!  I made mine with tomato, avocado, and my sauce on sandwich thins. Oh yeah, I found some spinach in my fridge I threw on mine too!  My kiddo got half a burger, cherry tomatoes and sliced avocado.  Be free with your burger building and enjoy!
