Cod
Preheat oven to 400 F.

Bake for 20 minutes until the fish flakes away from your cork.
Cauliflower mash
Steam cauliflower, onion and garlic for 10 minutes. Allow to cool for a couple of minutes.
Place cauliflower, onion, garlic, butter and olive oil in a food processor. Add salt and pepper to taste. Process until smooth and creamy and enjoy a large serving with piece of cod.
Superfood of the day: eggs
Eggs truly are one of the greatest foods on the planet! One egg contains only 77 calories and offers 6 grams of protein and 5 grams of the good fats. Eggs also score high on the satiety index – a measure of foods that induce a feeling of fullness and reduce caloric intake. When choosing eggs at the grocery store, try to opt for organic.
Health tip of the day
After you eat dinner, try to go for a minimum of a 20-minute walk around your neighborhood. To improve digestion and quality of sleep, it is important to avoid going to bed feeling full.
