Ingredients

Sweet Potato Oven Fries
4 large sweet potatoes (yams)
1½ tbsp canola oil
1 tbsp lemon pepper seasoning blend, like Mrs. Dash

Salmon Burgers
1 14.75-ounce can pink or red salmon
2 green onions, chopped
½ cup chopped red bell pepper
8 crackers, unsalted tops (saltine-like), crushed
2 tsp lemon juice
Egg whites from 2 eggs, whisked
2 tbsp plain low-fat yogurt
¼ tsp ground black pepper
Cooking spray
4 whole wheat buns
Bibb lettuce, 8 leaves
2 medium tomatoes, sliced

Directions

Place oven rack in center, heat oven to 425°F. Wash and scrub sweet potatoes, slice into wedges, length-wise. In a large bowl, toss potato wedges with canola oil and seasoning. Spread on cookie sheet. Roast in the oven, turning occasionally, until tender and golden brown, about 30-40 minutes.

While sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare salmon burgers. Drain salmon; place in a medium mixing bowl and flake. Fold in green onions and red pepper, crushed crackers, lemon juice, egg whites and yogurt. Shape into 4 patties. Coat large nonstick skillet lightly with cooking spray; heat. Cook salmon burgers until golden brown, turn and continue cooking until other side is golden brown. Serve burgers with sliced tomatoes and lettuce, and sweet potato oven fries.
