* Based on feeding a family of four

We all have a favourite tuna recipe, often one thats been passed around the family and cooked time and time again. Tuna should be considered for meals on a far more regular basis than we do, especially because its so easy and versatile to use, always on hand and requires no thawing or preparation before use. Our food team in the GREENSEAS Test Kitchen has been busy working on your behalf, developing and testing a whole range of new recipes which offer great healthy meal solutions that can feed a family of four for under $10. Now planning weekday meals wont be as complicated or time consuming as its been in the past. As a mum myself, I know that finding meals that are healthy, fit the budget and can be enjoyed by the whole family is a tough task at the best of times. So, if youre looking for new inspiration at mealtimes, then make our new selection of fuss-free, budget recipes part of your weekly meal plan and feel satisfied knowing that your family will be in good stead to get them through another busy, active day tomorrow.

Greenseas Healthy meals made easy!

Why is seafood good for me and my family? Greenseas seafood is high in protein and generally low in fat, so it is an excellent choice as a main meal, salad ingredient or entre. Fish is also a good source of iodine. Most Australians currently eat less than half the amount of fish recommended. Aim for at least 2 fish meals a week for good health. The good oil in fish The natural goodness of fish comes partly from the omega-3 fatty acids, which are special oils found in fish. Fish like salmon and tuna are particularly high in omega-3 DHA. Canned fish contains all the goodness of omega-3 fats found in fresh fish, and it is so versatile it is easy to serve twice a week. Will children eat fish? Children learn to eat and enjoy what is familiar, they also learn by example. If you eat fish regularly, your children will learn to enjoy fish also. Include tuna and salmon in your childs menu from a young age. These recipes are particularly designed to make family friendly meals with tuna and salmon no bones, no fuss. Fish and mercury Greenseas canned tuna and salmon are routinely tested and meet the strict requirements for limiting mercury intake. Food Standards Australia and New Zealand (FSANZ) advises that in general it is safe for all population groups including pregnant women to consume two to three serves of any type of tuna per week (fresh or canned).

Pumpkin, Tuna & Feta Frittata


A frittata is Italys version of a French omelette. Both are cooked over an open flame, but a frittata is generally finished under the grill. This version is particularly good as the sweetness of the pumpkin marries beautifully with the saltiness of the feta and tuna.
