This will be the BEST Salmon Burger recipe you’ll ever try. It starts with buttery fresh salmon, gets perfectly brown in a skillet (no grill needed) and is finished with crisp lettuce and creamy tartar sauce.

These Salmon Burgers Are Mind-Blowingly Good!

When I was brushing up on my Spanish last year, Duolingo led me to believe that I would be ordering hamburguesas de pescado everywhere in Spain (this food item appeared in almost every lesson, every day). But in my two weeks in Spain, I was presented with zero opportunities to order a fish hamburger.

What’s funny is that I probably would have ordered it if I had ever seen it on a menu! So today, it IS on my menu, and I hope you’ll add it to yours, too.

I set out to make a flavorful and juicy salmon burger, thinking I would need many rounds of recipe testing to get it just right. But I actually nailed it on the very first try.

As I was eating the perfectly browned burger with the only simple toppings it needed (crunchy lettuce and creamy homemade tartar sauce), I was making audible “oh my god this is so good” gasps and noises. There was literally not one single thing about it that could be improved. My husband and six-year-old daughter agreed.

Read on to find out exactly how to make one of my favorite new recipes in years.

This Is The BEST Chicken Stroganoff Recipe

The culinary school that I attended focused on learning classical French techniques, and thus wasn’t known to prioritize lighter, healthier cooking.

But at home, I’m all for ways to make my favorite dishes a little lighter, as long as they don’t sacrifice flavor.

Today, I’m reimagining one of my favorite comfort foods – beef stroganoff – by using chicken instead of beef. This swap reduces cholesterol while honoring the comforting, cozy flavors of stroganoff.

Honestly, this version is so good that you may find yourself preferring it over the original!

This Potato Salad with Egg has been a Midwestern family favorite for generations. Potatoes, eggs, celery and onion, dressed with a mayonnaise-Thousand Island-mustard dressing. So classic and so good! 

Potato Salad Recipe with Egg

Here it is: the potato salad that has been in my family for generations. And if you’re from the Midwest like us, I’m going to guess that your family’s recipe is very similar. Honestly, this was probably published in the newspapers at some point, and that’s where all of our grandmothers got it.

My grandma made (and my mom still makes) this on pure vibes. No measurements, just making it up as they go along and eyeballing all of the ingredients.

I prefer to have some guidelines, at least as reference (which means I can share it with you, too). I might not measure everything precisely, but at least I know I need about a cup of mayo, about 1/3rd cup of Thousand Island dressing and about 2 teaspoons of yellow mustard.

The recipe card below does have exact measurements, and is the result of making my mom make her potato salad while I jumped in and measured everything she was adding. It’s perfectly creamy, tangy and hearty in the way only Midwestern potato salad can be.
