Sometimes It’s Better To Be A Little Fish In A Big Belly

Eating fish is great, especially in this hot ass, muggy weather we’re having in NYC. But along with all the reasons why you shouldn’t be eating all sorts of shit (ew, not like that), our delicious fishies are also harmful. What with the mercury and the terrible fishing industry standards (don’t ask me for any details, because the good liberal I am, I don’t know the details, I just know we’re fucked), a lot of of fish shouldn’t be consumed as much as we probably want to consume it. I guess a rule of thumb is to eat the small fish more and the big fish once or twice a month? Is that truthiness? Can one of yalls who is either smarter or less lazy confirm that fact?

Anywhos, welcome this new delicious, cheap and healthy salad into your life.

Arugula with Anchovies and Lemon

Arugula with Anchovies and Lemon

Um, you need to get marinated anchovies for this. I got fancy and got mines imported from italy via my dudes, Los Paisanos. And then I got some arugula, washed and dried it. Squeezed lemon, then olive oil, and then placed some anchovies on top. As you know, anchovies have a pretty strong taste, I would say you want no more than 5 suckers per plate. Above is my fat ass getting ahead of myself. Some black pepper is nice on this shmack. And guess what? That shit /\ is probably about 40 cents worth of fish. And aside from the carbon footprint from the transport, it’s healthy as can be. <insert emeril Bam here>
