Fish

Fish and shellfish gain a high importance to my diet only recently. The starting point was as always Weight Watchers that push and reward people when eating them, but I had to find new ways of cooking them because as a Mediterranean girl, and more precisely a Greek girl, fish was grilled in the oven with a bit of lemon and oregano (with the exemption of salmon)! So I started looking at French recipes but there was a lot of butter in them and this was not possible for me, it was even unthinkable. And then a miracle happened, I visited a couple of years ago a region in France call the Sud-Ouest (South-West), and I discovered a lot of new different kind of fish and new ways to cook it. Since then, I prefer to eat fish and shellfish whenever I can :)
