What's for Dinner [Salmon Burgers with Spinach and Feta]

It's no secret that we've been enjoying tons of salmon lately (grilled, honey-soy-glazed, and most recently like this).   While I could eat it every day of the week, Hubby tires of it.  This was my attempt to change things up and it was a huge success!


Salmon Burgers with Spinach and Feta

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb salmon, cut into large cubes
  • 1 cup spinach
  • 1/2 cup Feta cheese (roughly)
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
  • Pulse spinach in a food processor until roughly chopped.  
  • Add salmon cubes and pulse until slightly blended.  
  • Add remaining ingredients and mix by hand.  Form into patties.  (The mixutre is soft.  If grilling chill in a fridge for 15 minutes until firmer.)
  • Add drizzle of olive oil to saute pan and heat.  Brown patties on each side and enjoy!
Notes:
  • We served plain, but this would be delish on a bun with lemon mayo (1 c. mayo, 1-2 T lemon juice, 2 t zest, garlic if desired).
  • For health reasons we omitted a binding agent like egg or bread crumbs.  While we didn't miss either, you could easily include one or the other!
  • We served with a simple mix of sauteed squash from the garden.
Happy Cooking!
