Adjusting This Recipe for Gluten Free Diets

Those on a gluten free diet can still enjoy this delicious salmon burger sandwich with a few minor adjustments. Instead of using a wheat beer to accompany the meal, a gluten free beer, cider or elderflower soda can be used to achieve the same crisp and refreshing flavor. Additionally, substituting a gluten free bread for the whole grain bread makes the meal fit for a gluten free diet.

Making This Recipe Vegan

Though this salmon burger sandwich recipe calls for grilled salmon, vegan diners can substitute the salmon burger with a plant-based patty. Vegetarian patties come in a variety of flavors and can often be found in the frozen food section. Additionally, vegan-friendly mayo such as soy-based or avocado-based mayo can be used in place of the horseradish mayo. Substituting a vegan-friendly bread for the whole grain bread completes the vegan-friendly adjustments.
