Move over Avocado Toast! Sardine Toast is all the rage and for good reason. Sardines are packed with high-quality protein (20-25 grams per tin), heart healthy omega-3’s (EPA and DHA), and essential vitamins and minerals like B12 and Selenium. They’re also very low in mercury, making them a safer seafood choice for regular consumption. And BONUS – they’re super affordable!
We love this recipe because it is infinitely adaptable. Adjust the sardine salad with whatever you fancy – chopped pickles, celery, olives, banana peppers, fresh dill, red chili flakes. The options are endless and the result will always be crunchy, zesty, healthful, and delicious!
