Salmon Sliders with Sun-Dried Tomato Spread
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 30 min. + cooling Cook: 10 min./batch
YIELD: 8 servings.
My husband isn't a fan of salmon burgers, but he devoured these! The combination of feta, dill and fresh salmon on the toasted pretzel bun, topped with sun-dried tomato mayonnaise, changed his mind. The pickle adds tartness and crunch to balance the flavors and textures perfectly. —Arlene Erlbach, Morton Grove, Illinois
