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.
