U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish, which are sustainably raised, are low in saturated fat, high in protein and a good source of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Consumption of these types of fatty acids is thought to be associated with reduction in blood pressure and reduced risk for certain cancers, inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and even mental decline. Made in under 15 minutes, this nutritious recipe is perfect for those with busy schedules.
