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:
- Season the salmon burger with paprika and a pinch of salt & pepper
- In a small pan saute the salmon burger over enough olive oil to coat the area where it will cook
- On medium-high, brown one side of the salmon burger
- Cook until the inside is a light pink that is not translucent yet still juicy, not dry
- 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
