I am officially on a path to eat healthier. That is the hardest thing for me about being a food blogger, all of the food you have around. It doesn’t help either that I am not cooking for a family so that the joy can be shared. I give a lot of it away but I’m going to start doing even more of that. Does that mean that I am going to stop making all of the sugary recipes that I make now, no way! Anything in moderation isn’t bad for you it’s when you don’t practice restraint that it can get you in trouble. For years I have made excuses, that ends now.

This seafood stew is so healthy. There is no additional fat added to it. All of the vegetables were cooked in the tomato broth. For the seafood I used a mixture of lobster, shrimp and cod. You can use any mixture you want or pick just one type of seafood, you need about a pound total for this dish. Trader Joe’s sells a great package of mixed seafood in their freezer case. I cooked the broth for about 45 minutes and then added the seafood and removed it from the heat 5 minutes later so that the seafood wouldn’t toughen.

Seafood stew full of lobster, shrimp and cod. So good and healthy too!

      I lack willpower too. I just have to resolve that as soon as I do pictures, it goes out the door.

      I found a store by me that sells it so reasonable, it individually quick frozen but that’s fine with me.

    There is WAY too much temptation around when you are a food blogger, that is for sure. This may be healthier but looks super delicious and indulgent to me.
