Salmon Burgers

Last night, I got home from work and had little time between walking in the door and heading back out for our small group. As excited as I was to meet with my ladies like every other Monday evening, I couldn't help but wish I had a little more time to exercise and make something yummy for dinner.

Luckily, this little thing called Pinterest was invented and 10 minute workouts were posted in every nook and cranny of the site. I changed into my jammin' soffees (yes, I said jammin'- they are neon pink, yellow, and blue) my purple sports bra, and sweat out to the following workouts-

After this quick yet heart pumpin' workout, I had about twenty minutes to get ready and head to the other side of the city. My stomach was growling, so I knew I couldn't ignore the beast that is "ravenous hunger".

Looking through my pantry and newly-stocked fridge, I got the craving for some seafood... Salmon Burgers, to be exact. I was new to this dish, but I took a crack at it...

Ingredients:
1 Can- Pink Salmon
(make sure you get it in water, not oil! Saves calories and the slimy texture)
1 Egg
1 Wedge Laughing Cow French Onion Cheese
small pinch shredded mozzarella
2 Tbs Parsley Flakes
1 Tbs Garlic powder
1/8 cup flour *As a gluten-free eater, I used Pamela's Pancake and Baking Mix-Which you can find at Target!*
Salt and Pepper to taste


In a large bowl, combine all ingredients above and mix with a fork. Form into two small patties and set on plate. Heat medium skillet with 1 tsp coconut oil (veg. oil works too) until hot. Place patties in skillet, cook for 3-5 minutes until crispy. Turn and repeat on other side.

By this time... I was feeling a little bit like this...

I placed my patties on a bed of spinach, jalapenos, and baby portobellos. So I sat down with my concoction and devoured the fish patties in no-time! And with two minutes left, I wiped my mouth clean to eliminate the evidence... then out the door I went!

Happy Tuesday, web surfers!
