January Seafood Meal Plan

Happy New Year, Seafoodies!

Welcome to 2020! Are you setting a New Year’s Resolution? Because health is so much more important than numbers on a scale or dress size, why not resolve to making healthy small steps every day instead of one big resolution. That’s why we’re kicking off 2020 with even more delicious and nutritious seafood options.



One small step towards a healthful 2020 is to eat two servings of seafood every week. The U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americansrecommends eating seafood at 2-3 meals each week to meet nutrient needs. And our January Meal Plan makes it so easy to plan out your two weekly seafood meals. Follow the plan or mix-and-match recipes to create a weekly menu that works around your lifestyle.


For breakfast, we’ve provided two of our favorite recipes that are truly ‘one-pan wonders.’ Fewer dishes in the sink means more time in the morning for you! Both the Breakfast Frittata Recipe: Shrimp & Broccoli, and the Coastal Breakfast Skillet incorporate one of our favorite ingredients—shrimp! Not only are they tasty dishes, but it’s easy to have a bag of shrimp in the freezer to whip these up.

For lunch, we’ll take a cue from our favorite Mediterranean diet and get inspiration from the coast of Greece with Mediterranean Salmon Bowl featuring tender salmon with the for bold flavors of feta and kalamata olives. Then punch things up with Marinated Seared Ahi with sesame and soy sauce.


For dinner, we’re waking up the tastebuds this winter with citrusy notes. Lemon pairs perfectly with seafood and the combo doesn’t disappoint in this Lemon Garlic and Herb Baked Cod. It’s quick and easy to make but doesn’t compromise on flavor or health. Our second dinner dish—Lemon Butter Scallops—is just as easy to make. Dinner is on the table with only five ingredients and in under 15 minutes!


And you don’t have to give up snacks to eat more healthfully in 2020. In fact, snacks are a big yes when you have nutritious options like Mini Paleo Salmon Cakes and Sushi Avocado Toasts. Check out the nutritious) choices that will keep your snacking healthy, on track and packed with good-for-you Omega-3s and protein.
