Savory Salmon Burger

IMG_3901

Salmon has omega-3 fatty acids which is a polyunsaturated fat that improves heart health, skin appearance, and has many other miscellaneous benefits.  Sadly, salmon is not one of my favorite foods, but I love a good all-natural salmon burger from Trader Joe’s or your local health food store.

Ingredients:

  • All-natural salmon burger patty
  • 1/2 tsp. olive oil
  • Lettuce
  • Tomato
  • Optional: 2 slices of avocado
  • 1 Tbsp. mayo made with olive oil
  • 100% whole wheat bagel thin
  • Paprika
  • Sea salt & pepper

Directions:

  1. Season the salmon burger with paprika and a pinch of salt & pepper
  2. In a small pan saute the salmon burger over enough olive oil to coat the area where it will cookIMG_4008
  3. On medium-high, brown one side of the salmon burger
  4. Cook until the inside is a light pink that is not translucent yet still juicy, not dry
  5. Assemble the sandwich.  Tip: If I’m eating a sandwich at home then I’ll usually eat it open-faced, but if your taking it on-the-go, you have to use both sides of the bagel thin
