Tuna, tuna, tuna!
Tuna is a staple in my cupboard for a whole bunch of reasons. It is quick, easy, cheap and has lots of omega-3. I have so many tuna recipes, I could actually write a tuna cookbook. If you are looking for cost-effective ways to add protein to your diet and to stop yourself from ordering takeout or delivery when hungry, tuna is the answer. Plus, it is way cheaper and quicker than delivery.
Other canned fish
Sardines, mackerel and salmon are also great sources of omega-3 as they are all fatty fish. Omega-3 is a heart-healthy fat and is known to be a mood booster. Be sure never to buy anything with tomato sauce in the can as the acid in tomatoes corrodes the lining of the tin and causes harmful chemicals to leach into your foods. If you like fish in tomato sauce, it is best to buy it plain and then add the tomato later on.
