Craving salmon? Pesto Baked Salmon is a 5 ingredient meal ready in minutes! Stock up on salmon burgers. I'll show you how you can go from frozen to flavorful in about 15 minutes.
Schedule a night for salmon. It tastes great and is widely available. And it's health benefits are undeniable. Those omega-3 fatty acids are superb from lowering inflammation, decreasing blood pressure and fighting cancers. In addition, you're getting B vitamins, folic acid and selenium. All wrapped into an excellent source of protein.
And using frozen salmon burgers is ideal for you, mama. No planning ahead. No slicing a raw salmon fillet into individual portions. Easy to store and cost effective. But even more, I use these to my advantage. I've found my family they readily accepts anything in the shape of a burger. So it's a win-win. Easier to prep and easier to get them to eat.
Here I'm spooning on a jarred pesto, topping with a tomato and sprinkling with a topping that turns a bit crunchy. So many delicious flavors and textures. Quick enough for a Monday. Tastes like a night out!
Enjoy!
