Time, it is something we all wish we had more of right? I think the biggest challenge for those that I speak to about living a healthy lifestyle is not having the time. That is why I can’t stress enough why meal prepping helps save me so much time. I dedicate 2-3 hours every Sunday and I prepare for my busy work week ahead. I get that meal prepping isn’t for everyone, but it is something that helps me maintain my healthy lifestyle while having a full time career. You already know I am big on burger and meatballs for a meal prep staple, but from time to time I also like to throw in some salmon burgers to the meal prep line up. These also freeze very well so I suggest you double up the recipe and prepare extra to freeze for those day’s you don’t feel like cooking.
What you will need:
- 2 Wild caught salmon filets (you could also use 2 cans of salmon)
- Garlic powder
- Avocado oil
- Fresh cilantro
- Fresh parsley
- Red onion
- Primal Kitchen Foods garlic aioli avocado oil mayo
- Primal Kitchen Foods spicy brown mustard
- 2 pasture raised eggs
- Ghee
- Salt and pepper to taste
I first cook my wild caught salmon filets with some garlic powder, salt + pepper, and avocado oil on 350 F for 15 minutes. I let them cool and with a fork I run it through to create flaky salmon pieces. I then add the rest of the ingredients, mix, form into patties, and cook on a grill pan for a few minutes each side.
I like to serve mine as a burger bowl over greens, sweet potato fries, cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes.
