Four Ways with Fish 4 Ever

Many of us can probably relate to the unfortunate experience of smelling someone’s fishy lunch from down the hallway or from another room – well with Fish 4 Ever no more smelly lunches!!

In fact, open a tin of Fish 4 Ever and you will immediately notice a difference. The fish is dense and whole, not mashed up or flaked. This is because only the fillet of the fish is packed, the best and most nutritious part, in rich organic and cold-pressed oils and dressings.

For this reason, we suggest sticking to the “KISS – Keep is Simple” rule when next enjoying your favourite Fish 4 Ever product as that way you can enjoy the full richness of the taste and quality without having the need to overpower the flavours with a bunch of other ingredients or overcooking.

Here are just Four Ways with Fish 4 Ever that we like and which you may want to try…

1. In a large bowl mix in your favourite green salad leaves along with some halved cherry tomatoes, small black olives, sliced cucumbers and finely chopped red onion. Make a dressing of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, baby capers, crushed garlic, salt and coarsely ground black pepper and drizzle over your salad. Once you’ve tossed all our ingredients together place a can of either Tuna in Brine or Tuna in Oil on top of your salad and enjoy!

2. Cook your favourite pasta in a large pan of boiling water until tender. In a frying pan add some olive oil and cook some finely chopped onion and garlic until softened. Add approximately 500g of ripe fresh tomatoes and cook stirring gently until tomatoes being to soften. Add a can of Fish 4 Ever Sardines to the pan and stir just until heated through. Toss your sardine mixture with your pasta and add a good handful of fresh basil. Buon Appetit!!

3. When you next have unexpected visitors drop by or when planning your next dinner party or luncheon the Fish 4 Ever White (Albacore) Tuna is perfect for your antipasto plate. Put together your favourite antipasto ingredients such as sun-dried tomatoes, marinated vegetables, cheeses, olives and cured meats. The White Tuna is a great compliment to your traditional antipasto favourites with some people describing it as “lobster like”.

4. Need a nutritious lunch in a hurry? Grab some good rye or mountain bread and spread with some mayonnaise. Next add your favourite Fish 4 Ever product along with any ingredients you like or have handy. Some suggestions include cucumber, tomatoes, grated carrot, celery, avocado, chopped walnuts, pine nuts, boiled egg lettuce, spinach leaves and finely chopped onion. Let your creative juices run wild and just watch everyone’s eyes wishing they had your lunch!
