Dijon Salmon Burgers with Greek Yogurt
January 30, 2010
I posted a Salmon Croquette recipe a while back that has been very popular and one of my top posts. I made these healthy Salmon Burgers for a television segment that will air next week on Friday, February 5th on NBC 13 “Daytime Alabama”. They’re so easy and full of great healthy flavor filled with Greek yogurt, panko breadcrumbs, chives and Dijon mustard. Serve on a bed of spinach, mixed lettuces or a bun.

I think it might. I love salmon but if you try it let me know.

Would this work well with tuna instead of salmon?
