Looking for a recipe for shrimp burger? My version is delicious and topped with fresh Mango and Avocado Salsa.
Hello! Hello!
This recipe for shrimp burger is a winner. It’s unique, healthy and super yummy. The Hubs and I will often make them together and we really look forward to Shrimp Burger night.
I mean look at that salsa topping. These are legit.
The recipe for shrimp burger is packed with juicy shrimp, crunchy veggies and tons of flavor. They are actually very healthy, but they taste so good you will think you are seriously splurging.
This recipe for shrimp burger is a little more labor intensive than some of my recipes. Let me give you a fair warning that these involve a good amount of ingredients and lots of chopping.
Grab a fruity cocktail, play your favorite tunes and chop away. They are soooo worth it.
Look at all the color and flavor!
The finished product can be grilled or cooked on the stove. Either way they taste amazing.
Serve them with my Mango and Avocado Salsa from Tuesday.
I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!
Recipe for Shrimp Burger
This recipe was originally published in April of 2013. It got a makeover with new pictures, text and updated printable recipe in August 2016.
Just for fun I'm keeping around one of the old photos to show how the blog has grown over the years! This is the original photo. It's not terrible, but what a difference a few years of learning makes. It's also so tiny! I wish I had made my photos larger from the beginning - doh. I guess it's all a learning a growing process!
