These Asian-inspired salmon burgers combine the flavors of fresh salmon, ginger, and soy sauce with a spicy mayo kick. Served on toasted buns with crispy bacon, lettuce, and tomato, they make for a delicious twist on the classic BLT sandwich.

Ingredients: 1 lb fresh salmon fillet, skin removed, and chopped. 1/4 cup breadcrumbs. 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 tablespoon ginger, minced. 1 tablespoon soy sauce. 1 teaspoon sesame oil. 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes adjust to taste. Salt and pepper to taste. 4 burger buns. 4 leaves of lettuce. 8 slices of bacon, cooked until crispy. 4 slices of tomato. 1/4 cup mayonnaise. 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce. 1 teaspoon honey. 1 teaspoon lime juice.

Instructions: In a food processor, pulse the salmon until it reaches a coarse texture. In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped salmon, breadcrumbs, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties. Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Grease it lightly with oil to prevent sticking. Grill the salmon burgers for about 4-5 minutes per side or until they are cooked through and have a nice char on the outside. While the burgers are cooking, whisk together the mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, honey, and lime juice to make the spicy mayo. Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until they are lightly browned. To assemble the burgers, spread a generous amount of spicy mayo on the bottom half of each bun. Place a salmon burger patty on top of the mayo-covered bun. Top each burger with a lettuce leaf, two slices of crispy bacon, and a tomato slice. Place the top half of the bun on the stack to complete your Asian-Style Salmon Burger BLT. Serve hot, and enjoy!

These Pumpkin Crumb Muffins are a delightful fall treat, perfect for a cozy morning or afternoon snack. The pumpkin puree, warm spices, and crumb topping make them a delicious autumn indulgence.

Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup granulated sugar. 1/4 cup brown sugar. 1 tsp baking powder. 1/2 tsp baking soda. 1/2 tsp salt. 1/2 tsp cinnamon. 1/4 tsp nutmeg. 1/4 tsp cloves. 1/4 tsp allspice. 1 cup canned pumpkin puree. 1/3 cup vegetable oil. 1/4 cup milk. 1 egg. 1 tsp vanilla extract.

Instructions: Warm your oven up to 350 F 175C and put paper liners in a muffin tin. Whisk the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices together in a large bowl. The pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, milk, egg, and vanilla extract should all be mixed together well in a different bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ones and mix them together just until they are mixed. Don't mix it too much; a few lumps are fine. Fill up about two thirds of the way to the top of each muffin cup with batter. Get a small bowl and mix 1/4 cup of flour, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon. This will make the crumb topping. Add 2 tablespoons of cold butter and mix until the mixture looks like big crumbs. Place some of these crumbs on top of the muffin batter in each cup. After the oven is hot, bake the muffins for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. First, let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then, move them to a wire rack to cool completely. Have fun with your tasty Pumpkin Crumb Muffins!
