Mackerel and avocado on toast

This is one the tastiest lunch options and incredibly easy to make. Mackerel is very rich in omega 3 and is considered one of the most nutritious fishes as it’s also an excellent source of B12 too. A great lunch to help reduce inflammation and protect heart health.

Creamy avocado on toast topped with the delicate taste of fresh mackerel. Spring onions and zesty lime. It’s heaven in every bite!
