Salmon Burgers, 20 Min Full Body Workout
"No matter how much money you make, at the end you'll be willing to give it all away for one more day."
Health > Money. But the good news it that we're building the healthy habits together now that are gonna help you live long, and live well.
This week I'm sharing one quick and easy meal, and one quick (but not necessarily easy) workout:
Meal of the Week: Salmon Burgers with Sweet Potato Fries
Workout of the Week: Rowing Machine, Push up, Pullup Circuit
Salmon Burgers with Sweet Potato Fries
Ingredients
Salmon Burgers from Wild Alaskan Company
Seasonings of choice: I went salt, pepper, paprika, cumin
Potato Rolls - I used Martin's, but any lower calorie bun works, Arnold is another solid option
Condiments of choice: I went tzatziki sauce and spicy brown mustard (on separate burgers). G Hughes BBQ sauce is another phenomenal option
Veggies of choice for burger: I went banana peppers and spinach
Crumbled feta cheese
Alexia Sweet Potato Fries
Extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
"Cook" sweet potato fries in air fryer while grilling the burgers (or you can use the oven if you don't have one). But get a friggin air fryer already (I use Ninja).
Season burgers
Cook burgers on stovetop or grill on medium, 3-4 mins each side. I used stovetop, added some olive oil to the pan
Place grilled patty on bun, add condiments / feta / veggies
The fries take about 13 mins in the air fryer, so they should be done right around the time the burgers are ready
I made this meal for Amy and I last night, and the entire operation from prep to cook to feast took less than 19 minutes after a busy day at the office.
It was so much easier than putting in a Seamless order and waiting 60 mins for my cold food to arrive.
The key is being prepared and having all the necessary ingredients fully stocked.
Rowing Machine, Push up, Pull up Circuit
Reminder that these workouts I share are quick and easy ones that you can knock out when you are strapped for time.
Because anything is better than nothing.
You need a rowing machine and pull up bar for this one, here's the overview:
Burn 100 calories on the rowing machine
75 push ups
Burn 50 calories on the rowing machine
25 pull ups
That's it. Take breaks as needed on the push ups and pull ups, but don't stop until you get to 75 / 25. Modify the pull ups if you need to - 25 is a lot. Too easy for ya? Run it back again. And again.
Thanksgiving is over. This may be the most important week of the year for you. You have at least the rest of this week before the Christmas festivities start ramping up. Don't throw this one away.
Whip up some salmon burgs and knock out this workout to help you lock down the rest of the week.
Stay well,
