Healthy, Fresh Salmon Burgers (with Sauce & Toppings!)

Welcome to my kitchen! Cooking and baking with the seasons has always been a part of my life. Here in New England, cooking and baking with the seasonal flavors available is a way of life. It's the feeling that you get when making homemade popsicles or grilled meats in the summer, Mom's pie crust cookies in the fall, or a warm bowl of hearty pasta in the winter. Whether it’s Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter or any holiday in between, I hope my recipes satisfy your seasonal cravings!These salmon burgers are filled with heart healthy omega-3 fatty acids found in salmon, walnuts, and flax seed! They are going to be a staple recipe rotation for you…easy and delicious! I love prepping these ahead of time on the weekends and then they are ready during the weeknights in a matter of minutes. The salmon burgers just take a few minutes to cook, and can also be frozen to have on hand for later too!

It’s about time we have another savory recipe around here! Goodness, it’s been almost a month since I shared these lasagna stuffed peppers. Have you tried them yet?! I love when I come up with recipes on a whim…and they end up turning out pretty well! The lasagna stuffed peppers didn’t take many test batches to perfect…which is NOT the case with these heart healthy omega-3 salmon burgers! I am not exaggerating when I say I’ve made these salmon burgers about 7-8 times…BUT that’s been over the course of the last 1.5 months so it’s been a little spread out.🙂 And the recipe makes 4 burgers, so since I’m just cooking for 2, Chris and I are able to get two meals out of this recipe!

The idea for these salmon burgers first came after discovering Aldi (one of my go-to grocery stores!) carried these delicious frozen salmon burgers. I bought them several times, but the bad thing about shopping at Aldi is that many of their items rotate and change…so sadly, I hadn’t been able to find them for several months. So what’s one to do when you’re craving a salmon burger?! I didn’t realize how easy it was to simply make them at home!

Asian Style Salmon Burgers

I use canned salmon here, as the salmon needs to be pre-cooked for this recipe. Canned salmon saves you a step of cooking the salmon and then flaking it…and to be honest, I feel it’s major waste to then grind up freshly cooked, expensive salmon for burgers. I haven’t tried using fresh salmon, but I’m sure you could. All that to say…to be honest the first time I made these burgers was the first time I had ever bought canned salmon…and I was MORTIFIED and disgusted to find small bones and pieces of skin in there! I even tried several different brands of canned salmon to see if they were all like that…(they were). So I just take a few minutes to pick through the bones/skin and discard that. Just a heads up if you’ve never bought canned salmon before like me.

Health benefits of salmon: salmon is filled with omega-3 fatty acids, which have been proven to have many heart-healthy benefits! Read more here.

The oat flour is used as a binder to help hold these burgers together! Just like salmon, oats are also heart healthy in that they are filled with fiber! Oat flour can literally be made in a matter of seconds at home! all you need are oats…I just put them in my high-speed blender, and literally less than a minute later I have fine oat flour! You can also buy oat flour at your local grocery store; look in the flour/baking section. While it’s cheapest to make your own, oat flour is a very economical flour to buy…much cheaper than buying almond flour!
