A healthier way

So tonight we had a great dinner. Sorry I didn't wait for pics as we ate at 10 pm! Whew it took us a while to get our stuff together and when it was we were hungry!

What we had was salmon burgers with lumpia. The burgers were from Costco. The cooking method is very straight forward. Cook from frozen on george forman grill for 10 minutes on med. Put on a nice bun. We added Lipton's seasame ginger marinade sauce and it rocked. The lumpia posed a problem for me. The kind we usually buy has oven directiions but this new pack didn't. I don't like to fry them for health reasons. I couldn't remember how to do it in the oven and I couldn't find out how online. So I just decided to try to cook them on the george forman too. They came out fabulous. They wre golden and crunchy on the outside and heated all the way through even though I put them on frozen. What would I do differently next time? Make sure the grill doesn't smash them. I might put a thick slice of onion on the grill to hold the weight of the top piece so the rolls stay round. That's it though, they were way better than oven cooked lumpia. All you need to do is put them on the george forman for 10 minutes on high. Just watch for them to crisp up and turn golden. No need to add any oil or butter. Serve with sweet and sour sauce. Cameron even had some of the salmon burger. I don't really know if he liked it, but he sure did make some cute faces.
