Tips
Pasta Recipe
- Wrap a fish fillet along with vegetables and herbs in parchment paper or aluminum foil and bake in the oven.
- Pack a tuna or salmon salad sandwich for lunch at school or work.
- Buy fresh or frozen fish such as cod, haddock, salmon, or sole that has not been breaded, battered, or deep-fried.
- Use leftover fish or canned fish to make mini patties or croquettes and serve with a low fat sour cream and chive dip.
- When dining out, order the catch of the day. Choose fish seasoned with herbs and lemon rather than a rich sauce.
- Tenderize lean cuts of meat by using a marinade or a slow cooking method such as stewing or braising.
- Remove skin from poultry before cooking or buy skinless pieces.
- Choose lean cuts of meat such as 'round' or 'loin.' If the cut of meat is not lean, trim off as much visible fat as possible. Drain fat from cooked ground meat.
- Use herbs and fresh salsas instead of salt to season and flavor fish, meats, and poultry. Try rosemary with chicken or fresh mango salsa with pork.
- Make sandwiches with lower fat, unprocessed meats such as roast beef, pork, lamb, turkey, or chicken.
- Limit higher sodium deli and luncheon meats such as corned beef, bacon, ham, hot dogs, pepperoni, salami, and smoked meat.
- Try lean wild or game meats such as bison, caribou, deer, elk, and moose.
- Eat at least two Food Guide Servings of fish each week.
- Select lean meat and alternatives prepared with little or no added fat or salt.
