Salmon Lettuce Wrap Burger


Low carb meals continue!  I recently found these salmon burgers at Sam's Club.  Each burger is 1/4 pound.  The salmon is sustainably sourced and ready to be grilled, baked, or pan-seared straight from the freezer.  These burgers are a convenient and nutritious choice.

The Atlantic Salmon burgers  are minimally processed and seasoned with garlic, lemon juice, and paprika for a fresh and tantalizing taste. Each burger provides a substantial 20 grams of protein and is free from artificial flavors and preservatives.


I opted to grill four of the burgers and used leafy lettuce in place of buns.


I sprinkled each burger lightly with Kinder's Seafood Blend seasoning.  5 - 6 minutes on each side over medium high heat on the gas grill and the burgers were ready.

I used leafy green lettuce as the bun as I stated above.  Then I added a slice of ripe tomato and topped that with a burger.  I mixed up an easy tartar sauce and spooned a little of that on top of the salmon and topped with some more of that leafy lettuce.


Our verdict?  We were very impressed with the ease of preparation, and the taste and texture were ideal.  I will definitely keep these in my freezer.  As delicious as they were served this way, I know they would be great on a bun or cooked and sliced for a salad topping.

I served with a side of coleslaw, but for those who aren't dealing with carb limitations, add some fries or tater tots to that plate!


Now for the tartar sauce:

In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 t. mustard, 1/4 t. Kinder's Seafood blend seasoning, a few grinds of black pepper, 1 t. fresh dill, chopped.

  1. I'm probably not suppose to have a lot of carbs either, but so far the Doc hasn't put me on a special diet.
