Low Fat Poached Fish
Poached fish is one of the easiest and healthiest meals you can ever prepare. Granted, on its own seems a bit bare, but once you taste it you'll know that appearances are deceiving indeed.
I like cooking this dish because there is no much cleaning to do afterwards, and the kitchen does not end up smelling like the inside of a fish shop. Besides, fish is healthy, low in fat, and high in phosphate (which is known as "brain food").
You should eat fish at least once a week to get all the necessary nutrients your body needs. As I live far away from the coast and fish isn't eaten that frequently here, I additionally take Omega 3 Fish Oil, just in case :-)
