Tips & Notes

  • Fabulous Fish

    Fish is a lean protein source that supplies amino acids that give structure to the body in skin, cell membranes and muscles.

  • Fresh Flavor

    Use the mild white fish that is most fresh at your market. You can use haddock, hake, red snapper, or sole instead of cod.
