Say yum: Salmon, tofu and broccoli patties

Summer is a fantastic time for throwing backyard parties and hosting casual lunches with friends. If you're tired of doing the same old burgers and steaks on the grill this year and want to make something tasty as well as nutritious, take a look at this page that offers a bunch of tasty-looking recipes. The one that caught my eye, about half way down the page, is the recipe for salmon, tofu and broccoli patties.
The incredibly healthy ingredients alone make it worth giving it a go. Tofu is chock full of protein, vitamin B and iron, while salmon is low in saturated fat but high in Omega-3 fatty acids, which are good for your heart. The fish also contains lots of protein and not much cholesterol. Broccoli meanwhile is like a Super Food, providing calcium, potassium, folate, fiber, vitamin C and the antioxidant beta-carotene.
The best part is that each serving contains only 158 calories and 6 grams of fat (including only a single gram of saturated fat). In addition, you'll be consuming 23 grams of protein and 5grams of fiber. Sounds pretty great to me.
