On our mission to “make seafood your favorite protein,” we’re keeping you informed on how seafood consumption can benefit you from your head to your toes! The wide range of species, tastes, and textures can help bring variety to your dinner table + and healthy and essential nutrients to your body 💪 

1. Lowers risk of heart disease ❤️

Studies show that eating fish regularly can reduce high blood pressure and lower the risk of cardiovascular disease, like congestive heart failure, coronary heart disease and sudden cardiac death. It can also prevent incidences of related conditions, like ischemic stroke.

2. Improves brain health 🧠

Fish contains lots of vitamins, minerals and omega-3 fatty acids that are essential to healthy brain function. Eating plenty of fish can help combat depression and ADHD, plus reduce your chances of developing Alzheimer’s disease and dementia later in life.

3. Promotes baby’s brain development during pregnancy 🤰

The omega-3 fatty acid DHA is an important building block of the brain, eyes and nerves for babies growing in the womb. Once they’re born, babies receive DHA and other essential nutrients for growth from breast milk, as long as their mothers continue to eat fish.

Studies show children benefit developmentally in this way when their moms eat about 2-3 servings of fish per week during pregnancy and while breastfeeding (with a serving being a four-ounce portion).

4. Improves sleep quality 🛌

Fish packs a double punch when it comes to helping you sleep well. The omega-3s and vitamin D in fish help regulate the level of serotonin in our brains, and serotonin contributes to high-quality sleep. That’s because serotonin triggers the production of melatonin, the sleep hormone that helps you fall asleep and stay asleep. Plus, the fatty acid DHA found in fish also plays a role in sleep by directly increasing melatonin production.

The positive effects of good sleep tend to spread into other areas of our well-being, like physical and mental health.

Baked Bristol scallops with potatoes & broccolini 
 
Ingredients: 
5-6pc. 10/20ct Bristol Sea Scallops 
½ lb baby Yukon gold potatoes
1 bunch broccolini 
1 cup Panko crumbs 
1 tsp fresh minced tarragon 
¼ cup parmesan cheese 
¼ cup olive oil 
¼ cup White wine 
2 TB water 
Fresh lemon juice 
½ lb unsalted butter
2 cloves Garlic minced 
1 TB parsley finely chopped 
1 TB Everglades Spice (buy online, you will use it on everything!) 
 
Toss Panko crumbs in a mixing bowl with olive oil. Spread onto a cookie sheet, bake at 350, stirring occasionally until golden brown. Remove, set aside to cool. Place toasted breadcrumbs in mixing bowl & toss with fresh tarragon & parmesan.
 
In a stand mixer, place in butter, garlic, parsley & Everglades spice. Whip at medium speed until butter is light & fluffy. Remove, place in a container. 

Wash the broccolini, trim the bottoms. Sauté on medium heat until just beginning to soften. Add a small amount of salt.

Wash the potatoes (peel if desired). Blanch in lightly salted water until cooked through. Remove let cool. Slice into 1/8 inch discs.

In a baking dish, pan, or your favorite Le Creuset, spread ¼ cup of the spiced whipped butter in the bottom. Place the sliced potatoes in the middle in a small stack. Add the broccolini, with the florets pointing out, allowing for space for the scallops to “snuggle” in next to them. Place scallops next to the broccolini. Mix the wine & water together and pour in just enough to reach the bottom of the scallops. Generously sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture on top and bake at 350 for approximately 13-15 minutes. Remove from oven, drizzle fresh squeezed lemon juice over the scallops & broccolini. Serve & thank Bristol Seafood for this treat!
