I hate fish..need suggestions



Recommended Posts

I just had my nutrition class and I am scared. It seems that my only choice will be chicken or fish. I hate fish. I don't like anything that swims. Will one day I get to eat red meat and pork.

Is there anyone else out there that doesn't like fish. What did you do?

Hi~ A really good fish to try is boneless salmon and a really easy way to fix it is to put it on the grill on a piece of foil and sprinkly LOTS of Old Bay Seasoning! Season it all, put the skin side up and then flip it over when it has grill marks underneath. Sprinkle with more Old Bay and grill the second side! tuna and swordfish and shrimp are also good this way! Honest! If you don't like that, there's always Hollandaise sauce, or a creole sauce (tomatoes, peppers, spices). Hope this helps!

Hi:

eggs are a good source of Protein too. How about chopped up light ham? I've even eaten the canned chicken that is the same consistency as canned tuna that I make into chicken salad. Sometimes I eat a couple of low fat sausages too.

You'll be able to eat red meat after you are on full solids again. However, you'll have to chew it so long that it may not be as appealing to you. I still have a pork chop every once in a while. One pork chop is good for two meals for me. :biggrin:

If you are motivated you'll come up with things that will work for you.

If you don't like fish don't eat it! You will be suprised how your tasts change. I eat alot of chicken, turkey, lite hot dogs, turkey sausage, eggs, cheese, cottage cheese, veggie burgers. I have had pork roast cooked in the crock pot it gets very tender that way. There are plenty options. I do like sea food but not "fishy" sea food. I eat tilapia, shrimp, and crab.
