Hello, Seafoodies!
One of the primary reasons the Dish on Fish blog was created five years ago (Happy Birthday to us!) was to help encourage you to prepare healthy and delicious seafood dishes in your own kitchen. In honor of National Pescatarian Month, we are introducing the second edition of our free e-cookbook, Everyday Seafood Recipes. The 2021 edition includes 65 recipes in a collection of protein-packed breakfasts, lunches, midday snacks and dinners! All of these easy seafood recipes are healthy and simple to prepare.
We packed it with mouth-watering photos and sprinkled in fun videos to whet your appetite for getting in the kitchen. It’s designed for sharing with friends and family (or click through it with your little Seafoodies to involve them in the meal planning). We’ve focused on fish and shellfish species readily available from your fishmonger or retailer in the fresh case, freezer and shelf-stable aisle, making it a breeze to get the two to three servings per week seafood recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
Where to start? If you’re taking our challenge to “Go Pescatarian,” bookmark our top 12 Dish on Fish recipes for 2021. For starters, we suggest powering up your day with a Turmeric Smoked Salmon Breakfast Bowl or Breakfast Shrimp Burrito. Looking for a midday nosh? We know the Fresh Vietnamese Spring Rolls or Crunchy Air Fryer Fish Sticks will hit the spot! For dinner, we recommend Mustard-Glazed Salmon with Cauliflower Mash and Spinach. Or, fire up the grill and enjoy some Baja-Style Fish Tacos!
We are so excited for you to try our new recipes and explore the entire e-cookbook. Download it, share the link with family and friends and have FUN cooking seafood. We’d love to hear what recipes you try this week!
Turmeric Smoked Salmon Breakfast Bowl
This un-bowl-ieveably great-tasting breakfast bowl is a protein powerhouse, with eggs, Greek yogurt and quinoa in addition to the smoked salmon. Topped with avocado and hemp seeds, this tasty dish boasts a boatload of omega-3s, too.
Sautéed shrimp, veggies, scrambled eggs and cheese wrapped in a whole-wheat tortilla make the ultimate grab-and-go breakfast! You can whip this dish up in less than 30 minutes, or prep and freeze a batch so you can zap them in the microwave on your way out the door.
Air Fryer Mac-and-Cheese Tuna Bites
Mac and cheese plus tuna always equals awesome! These kid-friendly tuna bites are a finger-food version of your favorite tuna casserole, with a creamy center and a crispy, 360-degree crust.
If you haven’t worked with rice wrappers before, you’ll be pleasantly surprised how easily you can recreate this restaurant fave at home. Shrimp, rice vermicelli and a kaleidoscope of colorful, fresh-cut veggies combine to make these rolls a nourishing treat.
With just a light mist of cooking spray, these air fryer fish sticks have all the crispness and great taste of the conventional fried dish without all the fat. Ready in just 20 minutes, this recipe is super-convenient for after-school snacks, but it’s so good that your family will be clamoring for them all year!
This protein-filled, lower-fat version of the beloved grilled sandwich features luscious lobstah! For those who say you can’t improve upon a classic, we respectfully disagree!
Mustard-Glazed Salmon with Cauliflower Mash and Spinach
Caul-ing all Seafoodie cauliflower fans! This oven-baked salmon dish features an addictive, mustard-maple glaze, garlic-spiked spinach and a low-carb, cauliflower-white bean mash that will convert even the most ardent mashed potato lovers.
This dish offers all that we love about the Mediterranean Diet—fresh vegetables, lean protein and a healthy drizzle of olive oil. The herb-garlic marinade infuses tuna with an incredibly rich flavor that will have you arm-wrestling your tablemates for the last skewer!
A succulent lobster dinner in 30 minutes: What’s not to love? Lobster’s also loaded with lean protein—with more than 20 grams per 4-ounce serving—and is a rich source of B vitamins and important minerals like copper and selenium, so this is one splurge you can feel good about!
If you’re craving some South-of-the-border spice, these tacos will give you the same great taste at home, with chili-spiked crema, corn tortillas and the swap-in of more healthful grilled fish. The piquant lime marinade packs a serious punch, guaranteeing you will savor every bite.
Caribbean Shrimp with Tropical Fruit
With its exotic flavor profile and festive presentation, this islands-inspired dish is sure to impress at your next dinner party. It’s a little bit spicy, a little bit sweet and oh-so-good!
Asian-Style Scallops with Vegetable Noodles
This low-carb dish features scallops that are seared to perfection and served atop a colorful and crunchy bed of “voodles.” With the addition of red cabbage, cilantro, and an addictive soy-hoisin sauce, you’ve got a light, tasty meal you’ll want to make again and again!
