Fish Comprehension

Hooked on fish
(Taken from RDJuly 2014)

Eating oily fish twice a week is a good idea for your health. Plus, oily fish contains high levels of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, which help reduce the risk of heart disease. Oily fishes include sardines, herring, kippers, Atlantic salmon, trout and mackerel. 
Compared to white fish, oily varieties are darker in colour and stronger in flavour. To balance and soften the flavour of the fish, pair it with other strong flavoured ingredients such as garlic, chilli, chermoula, ginger, pepper and citrus. These can be finely chopped and stuffed into the fish or made into a marinade and rubbed over the outside. Oily fish can be cooked in a variety of different ways, but it responds particularly well to barbecuing and grilling.

VARY YOUR DIET 
How many different foods do you eat?
Eating a wide variety of foods takes the worry out of healthy eating. Different foods contain varying types and levels of nutrients, so choosing a variety of foods is a good way to ensure you're getting the nutrients you need.

Get experimental once a month

Set aside one meal a month as your experimental meal to try a new ingredient or recipe.

Choose different bread 
An easy way to increase the variety of foods you eat is to change your bread each week. Try ones with different flours  and types of nuts and seeds.
