Healthier Summertime Burgers

by Joi on July 1, 2006

I subscribe to a Dr. Sears newsletter, The Daily Zone. Heaven forbid I ever actually diet, but some of the recipes and advice given are priceless. For example, I can’t wait to try the recipe below, Burgers, Without the Beef. The Daily Zone features salmon a lot and recommends every pantry should always have at least one can in it.

4-1/2 ounces canned pink salmon
2 egg whites
1 ounce slow-cooking oatmeal, dry
1/4 onion, diced
Garlic salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
1-1/2 teaspoons olive oil

Using a fork, flake the salmon in a medium bowl. Add the egg whites, oatmeal, onion, garlic salt, and pepper and mix well with your hands. Shape the mixture into a patty.

Heat the olive oil in a medium sauté pan over medium heat, add the salmon patty and cook for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.

Serve immediately on toasted buns or sourdough bread, with fresh tomatoes and good lettuce (leaf, not iceberg).

Or maybe some Portobella Burgers…..or some Tuna Burgers…or some, never mind, you get the picture.
