Almonds on Fish: Healthy and Delicious

Tomorrow is a special day for us at Nuts Over Fish. February 16th is National Almond Day! While you can grab a handful for a protein-powered energy boost, almonds are also a great addition to your favorite fish. There are many benefits to eating almonds on fish, which is why our nut toppings should be a part of your diet, especially if you enjoy delicious flavors! (And who doesn’t, really?) In this article, we’re taking a closer look at the health benefits of eating almonds and the two almond toppings we offer.

 

Enjoy some almonds on fish for an easy and delicious dinner! Here’s why almonds are a great addition to your diet.

 

Nutrient-Rich

Almonds are full of nutrients that your body needs. They are an excellent source of vitamin E, magnesium, calcium, and fiber. Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps prevent inflammation. These anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties also contribute to skin health, preventing damage to cells and protecting against premature aging. Magnesium and calcium contribute to bone health, and fiber encourages digestive health.

 

Heart Health

In moderation, the monounsaturated fats (“healthy fats”) in almonds contribute to heart health and can even help lower cholesterol. For a long time, we mistakenly treated all fats as the same, but your body requires some healthy fats. More recently, nutrition science has improved, and we better understand what fats our bodies need and what foods contain them.

 

Our Almond Toppings

We love almonds so much that we have two almond topping varieties. Almonds are an excellent source of protein, and our nut toppings create the crispy crust on your fish you want without adding extra carbohydrates with breadcrumbs. Our first topping seasons your fish with the flavors of Dijon mustard, thyme, rosemary, and garlic. These classic savory flavors are the perfect complement to any fish. Our sugar-free almond topping brings a few more flavors to your fish with parsley, lemon peel, tarragon, chives, Dijon mustard, garlic, and white pepper.

 

The Easy Way to Enjoy Almonds on Fish

At Nuts Over Fish, we believe that eating healthy should be easy. That’s why we made our Nuts Over Fish toppings! Whether you prefer almonds or other nuts on your fish, our toppings are an easy way to make a healthy meal. Just sprinkle some of our seasoned crushed nuts on your favorite fish, cook, and enjoy!
