Sardines

Have I said enough good things about sardines? This has been another pregnancy mainstay. They're more flavorful than canned tuna, do not poison fetus and I with mercury, and are high in Omega 3's for brain-developing goodness. Not too shabby in the protein and iron departments either. My preferred kind is the wild caught skinless & boneless sardines packed in water. 

I had been throwing a can together with a little mayo and some capers and calling it a day.. maybe spreading it on some whole grain bread with some fresh slices of tomato if I was feeling particularly fancy. But today I added a few elements from the salmon sandwiches of last week's shower: chopped green onion and horseradish... upping the zazz quotient considerably.
