A great meal prep option that is very economical, high in protein, high in anti-inflammatory omega-3 fats, and fished sustainably.
Ingredients
1 whole fish
|
Mackerel, smoked
|
Instructions
- Buy a whole smoked mackerel fish.
- Peel the skin back on both sides. Remove the head and cut the fish in half along the spine to create two fillets.
- Using a knife and spoon, take off the flesh on the first fillet and put it into a clean mason jar (you can chop it into smaller pieces). Be careful to remove any bones.
- Remove the spine, taking as many bones as possible.
- Remove the remaining fillet, taking out the bones and chopping them into bite-sized pieces. Add to the mason jar.
- Label the mason jar with the expiry date. Use this as a protein topper to sandwiches, pasta, Buddha bowls, salads, eggs, etc.
