Indian-Spiced Cod
Cod is high in essential omega-3 fatty acids yet low in calories making it an ideal choice of proteins to add to your diet. It has a mild flavor, so it works with various vegetables and spices. One of the easiest ways to prepare it is to add some big, bold Indian spices to flavor up the fish. It takes only 10-12 minutes to cook this in the oven, so it can easily be on the table in less than 20 minutes. Serve with some sautéed spinach or carrot salad for a side of fiber.
