A light citrus entree that helps protect your skin!
This easy recipe is high in Omega 3 fatty acids, thanks to fresh Alaskan Cod, and also antioxidant, anti-inflammatory flavonoids, found in the citrus ingredients.
The combination makes this a great dinner recipe as we head into warm weather and lots of sunshine (and the potential for skin damage).
Enjoy this lovely Alaskan Cod dish and get started with your summer health protection tonight!
