Mini salmon-crab burgers with zesty Creole mustard sauce

One of our all time favorite recipes for Salmon Crab Burgers needed and update and we decided to mix it up a little bit by cooking them up slider size. These mini-burgers are just as delicious as the classic version but I think they’re even easier to prepare since we bake them in the oven…
