We made this today and really liked it. A somewhat healthier option for a burger. We used whole grain rolls and switched out the Sriracha for a (in my opinion) much better hot sauce. Other than that I can wholeheartedly recommend the recipe.
Ingredients:
3 spring onions
426 g salmon
1 lemon
1 egg
1.5 tbsp breadcrumbs
1 tbsp olive oil
1 cucumber
4.5 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tbsp water
2 tsp sriracha
200 g sliced pointed cabbage
150 g carrot julienne
4 baker's rolls
Directions:
Cut the spring onion into rings. Drain the salmon. Grate the yellow zest of the lemon and squeeze the fruit.
Beat the egg. Mix the salmon well with the egg, breadcrumbs, half the spring onion, 1 tsp lemon juice and 1 tsp lemon zest.
With damp hands, form into 4 burgers of Ø 8 cm.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the burgers for 12 min. over medium-high heat until golden brown and cooked. Turn halfway through.
Meanwhile, cut the cucumber into thin slices. Mix the mayonnaise with

We made this yesterday and it was a great success with our daughter. It's really easy to make, if you have access to store bought Spaetzle. If you don't, there are numerous recipes to make them yourself
Ingredients:
2 onions
1 clove of garlic
400 g cherry tomatoes
100 g baby spinach
500 g of Spätzle
Salt
4 tbsp olive oil
Pepper
0.5 tbsp sugar

Peel the onions, halve them and cut them into strips. Peel the garlic and cut them into slices. Wash and halve the tomatoes. Wash the spinach and shake dry.

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large pan. Fry the onions and garlic until translucent, add 300 g of the tomatoes and fry briefly. Season with salt, pepper and sugar. Stir in the sour cream and Parmesan.
Drain the spaetzle, let it drain and mix it with the spinach into the tomatoes. Allow the spinach to wilt slightly. Season with sal
Get half-kilo of fresh tomatoes, three onions, and three carrots. You can use the cheapest tomatoes for this, the heat treatment will average the taste. Wash everything. Chop onions and carrots, dump into the frying pan. Add salt.
Fry diced onions and carrots in a pan, using a generous finger-thick layer of oil, preferrably olive, until the onions don't sting anymore and carrots start to soften.
Cut tomatoes in 2 pieces each, you'll mash them anyway so thin slices do not matter. Dump tomatoes into the pan. Cover with a lid, cook on a slow fire for about 10 minutes until they become sauce. Mash and stir each 3 minutes so they won't burn. Cooking less will prese
Crust, mix 200g flour (I used 50/50 spelt and ap,) and 1 tsp salt, smoosh in 75g cold butter, then add 1dl ice cold water and mix until just combined. Form into disk and refrigerate at least 30 minutes. Roll out to pan size and dock with a fork. Back in fridge.
Guss, 2dl milk, 100g Greek yogurt (or quark if you can get it, cream works too), 2 eggs, 1 tsp vanilla sugar, beat until well combined.
Split and stone 1kg Zwatchke (aka prunes or Italian plums. Or really any stone fruit apricots are particularly good).
Cover the bottom of the crust with 2-3 tbsp ground nuts (I used hazelnuts,but almonds, walnuts or pecans all work,) arrange the fruit, and pour over the guss.
Cook in a preheated 425f oven for 45 - 60 minutes, until the center jiggles.
Let cool at least slightly, but it's good hot, warm, or cold.
You can just mix everything together in this version, no particular order. The author stresses that it won't taste right if you use a different brand of mayo. He says it makes it taste too strongly of mayo. He particularly cautions the use of low fat or reduced calorie mayo, and the substitution of ketchup for the tomato paste. Once mixed the sauce should be refrigerated immediately and allowed to chill overnight for best results. Best within 7-10 days.
I was frustrated earlier trying to figure out what to cook for dinner for a few picky eaters, so I typed:

into Goblin Tools. The recipe it came back with is delicious. I cooked it and got no complaints from anyone, which impressed me so I figured I'd share it. I added 1/2 teaspoon of garam masala to the spice mixture but other than that I cooked it exactly how it says to in the recipe.

This recipe is great to repurpose lunch leftovers for dinner. It's also relatively mess-free. Loosely based on egg-fried rice.
Amounts listed for two servings, but they're eyeballed so use your judgment.
Ingredients:
Cooked leftover rice. 200~300g (cooked) is probably good enough. It's fine to use pilaf, just make sure that the rice is cold, a bit dry, and that the grains are easy to separate.
Two eggs. Cracked into a small bowl and whisked with salt, pepper, and MSG. Or the seasoning of your choice.
Veg oil. For browning.
Water. Or broth if you want, it's just a bit.
[OPTIONAL] Meats. Leftover beef, pork, or chicken work well. Supplement it with ham, firmer sausages, and/or bacon; 1/2 cup should be enough for two. Dice them small.
[OPTIONAL] Vegs. I'd add at least half raw onion; but feel free to use leftover cooked cabbages, peas, bell peppers, etc. Or even raw ones. Also diced small.
[OPTIONAL] Chives. Mostly as a finishing touch. Sliced
