A Salmon Burger is a delicious and healthy alternative to the traditional beef burger. Made from fresh, flaky salmon, these burgers are seasoned with herbs, garlic, and a touch of lemon zest, then grilled or pan-seared to perfection. The result is a juicy, flavorful patty that’s rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Serve it on a whole-grain bun with your favorite toppings, like avocado, lettuce, and a dollop of tartar sauce, for a satisfying meal that’s both nutritious and indulgent. Whether for a weekend barbecue or a quick weeknight dinner, Salmon Burgers are a great choice.
