Salmon Burger on Toasted Onion Roll
It’s Monday. Honestly I did not have a What’s for Dinner plan until leaving work at 5:30 pm. Salmon is always a favorite go-to protein for us and readily available. It’s the “if all else fails, we can always have Salmon” and we know it will be a good meal. I recently tried something new with Salmon ~ Salmon Meatballs. They were so moist and flavorful and pop in your mouth get me another good that we had to revisit that recipe.
While we don’t eat a lot of bread, these soft onion rolls were fresh from the bakery oven and I’m a sucker for food that speaks to me through smell. Mmmmm….. they were a great choice for this burger.

- Cook in saute pan with 1 Tbl. oil over med-low heat (to get the beautiful browning, do not use a non-stick skillet).

Sounds yummy!! Can you use canned salmon instead of filets?

Not sure the canned would welcome all the lovely flavors in this burger. But if fresh isn’t available and you’re having a salmon burger hankering, give it a try. My husband is chiming in saying he grew up with canned salmon patties and the fresh is definitely the way to go :)
