Make these insanely delicious salmon sliders for the entire family! There are many benefits for kids and adults alike when it comes to eating wild-caught salmon. You'll want to put this recipe in your recipe box and keep them in your menu rotation!
Kids will enjoy eating their salmon slider on a soft pretzel bun. Don't worry though, if you follow a low-carb, Ketogenic, or THM lifestyle, I have options for you too! Keep scrolling!
Those of us who follow a gluten-free or low-carb lifestyle can use an alternative, like the Keto bun pictured below. My three favorite recipes for low-carb, gluten-free, keto-friendly bread are:
- Fat for weight loss Keto bread (but I put it in this silicone muffin pan to bake them into slider buns)
- Diet doctor coconut-flour bread
- Diet doctor hot dog buns
The inspiration for these insanely delicious salmon sliders comes from my family's all-time favorite hamburger recipe found in Jamie Oliver's book Comfort Food. He calls it the Insanity Burger. You can find this book in the TOM Cookbook Club collection.
In the spirit of “standing on the shoulders of giants” in mind, I prepared my salmon burger incorporating one of the condiments recommended from Jamie's burger recipe. I highly recommend grabbing that cookbook and trying the Insanity Burgers, by the way.
Since it's a good idea to get some healthy omega-3 fatty acids in our diet, I wanted to create a Salmon burger that would be just as delicious. The two main elements that make these salmon burgers outstanding are are 1) the use of the mustard and hot sauce combo while cooking the salmon and 2) the lettuce, ketchup, mayo combo used in building the burger. The size of these burgers make them fun and easier to hold therefore perfect for kids!
