There are limitless opinions, articles and books written about nutrition during pregnancy. I understand why some women swear off eating fish completely during pregnancy because there are so many warnings about the risks of mercury in seafood. But I have also read studies that show a correlation between higher intake of omega-3 fatty acids during pregnancy and increased cognition in babies and young children. So here are the omega-3 fatty acids that I ate this week, all wrapped up in peppers and teriyaki sauce.
Large (approx. 2 lb) salmon steak
Approx. 1/2 cup Yoshida's teriyaki sauce
1/2 green pepper, sliced
1/2 red pepper, sliced
1/4 orange, sliced (mostly for looks...)
Preheat oven to 350°. Prepare salmon by brushing teriyaki sauce onto fish, making sure it is thoroughly covered. Top fish with peppers and slices of orange. Bake for about 30 minutes or until fish is flaky and opaque.
