Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Fish is a lean protein source that supplies amino acids that give structure to the body in skin, cell membranes and muscles.
  • tip 2
    Use the mild white fish that is most fresh at your market. You can use haddock, hake, red snapper, or sole instead of cod.
  • tip 3
    Lose Weight the Smart Low-Carb Way from Prevention® (2002) p. 232.
