SALMON BURGERS OVER PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS. Wheat and gluten-free Salmon Burgers over Portobello Mushrooms – 30 Minute Dinner. A mix of scallions, red pepper, flaxseed, egg, and fresh dill. Simply delish. So continuing on with my wheat and gluten-free meals, tonight’s dinner has definitely been my favorite so far – Salmon Burgers over Portobello Mushrooms. The salmon mix was simply scrumptious and the portobellos were perfectly cooked.
Now I know there are quite a few people out there that can’t do mushrooms and especially the large Portobello ones, so try this other option instead. Put the patties between 2 slices of Focaccia Flatbread with some Garlicky Mayo Spread (click here for recipe). Now, how’s that for yummo? And if you want to spice it up a bit, add 1 seeded and finely chopped jalapeno pepper to the mixture and use cilantro in place of the dill (sorry, but that sounds a little too spicy for me).
This recipe was so easy breezy – only 10 minutes to prepare and a little less than 30 minutes to cook. Serve it up with your favorite side dish of vegetables, or as I did, with a simple salad. At only 238 calories, you can’t go wrong with this dish.
Enjoy and bon appetit 🙂
