Fish and broccoli
Hey everyone, my name is Jeannie Wilmore. The recipe I chose to share is very easy to make, doesn't take much time or effort and is delicious. For those who don't like fish or seafood, this may not be for you. It literally takes 20 minutes from start to finish. I bought a pack of Trident Pollock Fish Fillets, you simply take out however many you need and put them in the oven on 400 degrees for 10 minutes on each side. While these are cooking, put some broccoli in a pan and steam it for 20 minutes. Top the broccoli off with butter, cheese, and salt. I usually put Tarter Sauce on the fish to spice it up a little. It is important to have a well rounded meal, something from each food group because the body does need all the vitamins and minerals. A few additions a person could make to this meal, to include more food groups, could include a bed of rice under the fish, or you could make a fish sandwich. You can also add a glass of milk to increase the dairy intake. Milk, complex carbs, fruits and vegetables, and meats are a way to make sure you are eating all the nutrients you need. My body digests things differently because 3 years ago I had a weight loss surgery. The surgeon basically cut my small intestine and my stomach in half. I have lost over 250 pounds, and I feel so much healthier now. I do have multiple vitamin deficiencies, but I take supplements to try to boost my levels to where they need to be.The specific nutritional value is limited on any meal I consume because I can't eat certain things. My main goal with each meal is to consume at least 20 grams of protein, and try to eat as much vegetables as I can. I don't drink anything with my meals, but I will drink water up to 30 minutes before or afterward. I have learned there are good reasons for every food group, including fats and sugars. The body needs to be able to access quick energy (fats, sugars, and carbs) as well has draw from its stored energy (proteins). There are also a lot of vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals the body uses from fruits and vegetables. Most foods contain too much sodium, which is a major problem when you are looking at cardiovascular disease. This particular recipe contains 250 mg of sodium, 18 g of protein, Vitamin A & C. One benefit my dr gave me is I will never again have to worry about high cholesterol or sodium intake because I can't absorb enough of it to make it a problem. However, one of the drawbacks is the vitamin deficiencies, lack of fiber intake, and low calcium. I will have to take vitamin supplements for the rest of my life. Wilmore, J
