Mackerel
If you’re not a fan of fish, it’s time to expand your horizons, starting with mackerel. Mackerel is a great main course for dinner or a tasty addition to salads and other dishes. This fish has ridiculously high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, and also has high levels of the mineral selenium. This mineral helps the body fight against the development of heart disease and cancer. Make a healthy version of fish and chips by skipping the batter and switching the potatoes for sweet potatoes.
