I usually try and aim for fish in my diet at least 2x per week not only for the lean protein but for the healthy omega-3s. My husband is not a big fish eater and this has always been a struggle. However, with the right topping and seasoning to enhance the flavor of the fish, we’re on a positive path of getting more in our diet that we both can enjoy. I created this recipe simply because mangos are in season and they were on sale at the store. I was tired of our same old fish go-to recipes and wanted to give this one a try.
Raspberry Jam
Making jam has been around for centuries and something I personally have only recently started to try out. This raspberry jam recipe is so simple and uses basic ingredients with fresh raspberries, lime juice and sugar. There’s no additional pectin required because the raspberries contain a natural form of pectin which helps solidify the jam. This recipe makes enough jam to fill 1 small 16 oz mason jar. It only lasts about one month but you can utilize it in many different ways. You can add 1 tsp of jam to plain Greek yogurt for a light snack, pair it with brie and crackers for a fancy appetizer, mix it with your favorite dessert such as my Lemon Loaf Cake with Raspberry Swirl for a delightful treat or naturally spread it on toast with butter. Give it a try and let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
