Sure, canned salmon lacks a certain gourmet flair; but for just a few bucks, you can get wild-caught Alaska salmon, full of protein and healthy oils, and turn it into something flavorful and satisfying.  Add some fresh dill, lemon and Dijon mustard, and you can make fast, easy salmon burgers that hit the spot without doing too much damage to your checking account. Full recipe after the jump.

Ingredients
•  2 cans (7-1/2 oz. each) Alaska salmon
•  2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
•  1-1/2 tsp. Dijon mustard
•  3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
•  1/2 cup chopped dill
•  3 egg whites
•  salt & pepper to taste

Directions
Drain salmon. Combine lemon juice and mustard. Blend salmon with bread crumbs, dill and lemon juice mixture. Mix in egg whites. Form mixture into 4 patties and pan fry or broil until golden brown and heated through. Squeeze fresh lemon to taste on top of the burgers as soon as they come off the heat. Serve each burger on an Arnold Sandwich Thin with lettuce, tomato and tartar sauce.

For extra flavor, render some diced bacon or pancetta; add to mixture.
