As soon as May hits, we find ourselves grilling almost every dinner until September. I love watching the sun set on our fruit trees with the smell of dinner sizzling on the grill. Making dinner outside requires a lot less clean up as opposed to the normal 10 pans I use to make dinner inside, and is easier quite frankly!

While the grilling possibilities are endless, I usually find myself in a cooking rut halfway through summer. There is really only so much meat that my stomach can digest, and feeding meat to a family of 5 every night is just not feasible for this Southern California Mama.

When I came across these packages of Trident Seafoods® Wild Alaskan Pollock Burgers at Costco a few weeks back, I knew they would be the perfect swap for our meat burgers. Convenient, delicious, and healthy alternative to traditional burgers and sandwiches.

Wild Alaska Pollock mild in flavor like cod, provides all the benefits of seafood and are naturally packed with healthy Omega-3s. Not only are they great between the bun, but they are extremely versatile and can be served in other fun ways!

The sweet and salty flavor combination is one of our favorites here in The Seaside Baker household. Combined with the mild fish and Sriracha mayo, this burger was a slam dunk! Because the actual burger contains less fat and cholesterol, I decided to splurge that night and make some tempera onion rings! Let's just say we had one happy family! So, tell me, would you dare to swap your burger?
