Every Wednesday night, I go live on Instagram and FaceBook for a walkthrough of a new recipe! It’s different every week and last night on #CookingWithCail Episode 4, we made TEX MEX SALMON BURGERS! Easy as pie (why do we say that), but tastes like fish, duh because it IS fish. I crack myself up sometimes…. lolz. Anyways, what makes these salmon burgers tex mex, you might ask? Homemade pico de gallo, of course! If you missed the live steam, no worries because I’ve posted the recipe right here for ya!
I ate mine just the patty over a bed of shredded cabbage as an alternative to a bun! Topped with more fresh cilantro, because cilantro is literally my favorite thing in the world. I was planning on adding some avocado to the top, BUT mine aren’t ripe yet. Such a bummer – they’re all hard as rocks. Next time I make these, I’ll be sure to have a ripe avocado on hand to dress up these babies. I’d love to see how you dress yours! What’s your favorite way to eat a homemade burger?
