PRODUCT REVIEW: Trader Joe's Veggie Burger


I had buns left over from my salmon cake recipe that I needed to use up before they went bad, so while at  Trader Joe's I bought their frozen 4 patty veggie burgers. I took one patty to work still frozen, popped it in the microwave for 2 minutes, placed it on a bun with mustard and hot peppers and was really impressed with the easiness of it all. This is a great quick little sandwich to make when you are in a rush but need something to fill you up. The patties have carrots, onions, celery, bread crumbs, and wheat as just some of the ingredients. Its not overwhelming in flavor, you definitely need a condiment on it but that's what always makes burgers fun, what you add to them. 

I made the burger for lunch today just to try it with other condiments. I poured worcestershire sauce on the patty and placed marinated artichokes on top, combined with a fresh salad I feel full but not heavy. 
If you get a chance to try, I highly recommend!

Dill Salmon Cakes


I was looking for a quick recipe for dinner, time was running short and I had to get to work in an hour. A little fresh dill, chopped white onion, breadcrumbs, an egg, and two cans of Trader Joe's salmon, and I had these beautiful little patties to pop into the oven for 20 minutes. I placed one of them on a Trader Joe's whole wheat bun with Dijon mustard, lettuce, and a slice of tomato, then popped it into a Tupperware.
Dinner done in 30 minutes and I got to work in 10 minutes!
