Why this works

White fish is an everyday protein. Cauliflower mash stands in for potatoes. Carrots stay in a small scoop.

What you need

  • cod fillet, no skin3 oz
  • mashed cauliflower½ cup
  • steamed carrots¼ cup
  • lemon2 slices
  • parsleya pinch

How to make it

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 400°F.

  2. 2

    Set the cod on a small pan. Top with lemon and parsley. Bake 12–15 minutes until it flakes.

  3. 3

    Steam or microwave the cauliflower, then mash with a tiny pat of unsalted butter and pepper.

  4. 4

    Steam the carrots. Plate everything together.

No salt in the pan. Taste with lemon, garlic, and pepper. If it still needs a kick, use the salt-free Cajun mix on the Around Town page.
