We know we need to do it. We know everyone benefits immensely from eating it and we also know, that starting young is even better.
But when all that is said and done, we still struggle to get fish into our weeks!
Not always a crowd pleaser, we have learnt to adapt in our family of 5. Only one has a strong fish issue, so we give allowances only for this one meal for this one child.
Fish Meals in Minutes
-
Salmon Steaks
-
Our easiest meal of the week is salmon steaks night.
-
We buy frozen pre-portioned salmon from Aldi or Coles/Woolies - BBQ them plain and
-
Serve with mixed salad and garlic brown rice.
-
-
Tuna Patties
-
Tinned tuna, blended with carrot, zucchini, a binder like weetbix, cheese, egg, wholemeal flour - either baked in the oven and/or fried if you have more time
-
Served with salad and brown rice
-
-
Salmon and Rice Balls
-
The most popular recipe of ours yet - see it over here
-
Baked not fried, so you can free yourself up while they cook to prepare the rest of the meal or serve them as a snack.
-
-
Sardines
-
Have made a huge comeback - so serving them on toast or crackers or mixed through a salad or pasta sauce is an excellent, easy and cheap option to get more fish into your week.
-
Fish twice a week is our minimum goal - try for 3 if you can.
