- 1/4 c fresh cilantro
- 1/2 red onion, chopped

- Quick Mexican Slaw:
-
Add all ingredients to a bowl and stir. Great to make ahead and allow to soften. Great way to get in fiber at any meal as a side or a fish taco topper. Another option is a fish taco bowl with cauli rice, slaw, and fish for a super low carb option and skipping starch. All works. Makes 5 - 1.5 cup servings

Note: Fish is rich in calcium and phosphorous and a great source of minerals, such as iron, zinc, iodine, magnesium, and potassium. These vital minerals can be depleted from stress. They effect the adrenal function and stress response. They also help thyroid function on a cellular level, helps increase stomach acid to aid in digestion, and effects our insulin response to foods by getting the glucose in our cells better. So more balanced blood sugar naturally when we are getting these minerals in. That’s a lot! So trying to add fish to the dinner menu more often.
