Salmon Zucchini Burgers

Cookouts are the one of the best things about summer!  Juicy burgers, the sunset, the warm weather!  I love it all, besides the unhealthiness of the burgers.  Most burgers have tons of protein, but a lot of unhealthy fat to go along with it.  Thats why I made this burger.  Salmon is packed with protein plus healthy fats that are important in maintaining over all health.  Why the zucchini you might ask?  It gives the burger a nice moist flavor, just like it does in zucchini bread.  The result?  A delicious satisfying burger you won’t feel guilty about!
