Tilapia Burger Patties

Baked Cod Burgers

"I invented this to get my five-year-old son to eat fish, and it was a hit! He ate his in record time," says recipe submitter Alison M.

Yummy Lemon Salmon Burgers

Salmon Burgers with Lemon Basil Mayo

This recipe also features lemon-basil mayonnaise but uses fresh salmon in the patties, with the added flavors of garlic, green bell pepper, and soy sauce.
