These egg-free quinoa-salmon burgers are a flavorful, nutrient-dense option that’s both Elimination Diet-friendly and quick to prepare. Whether you enjoy them fresh or make a double batch to freeze for later, these burgers are a satisfying addition to any meal. For the best texture and ease of preparation, I recommend using wild King salmon rather than sockeye or coho, as its bones are larger and easier to remove. You can pull them out by hand or use tweezers. If you'd prefer not to remove the skin yourself, ask to have it done when purchasing your fish. Once the patties are formed, they can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days or frozen between pieces of waxed paper for a convenient meal anytime. Serve them with a green salad, Oven-Roasted Parsnip Fries, or a cup of Soothing Tummy Tea for a nourishing and comforting meal!
