Wide Alaskan Black Cod with Black Eyed Peas
I’m usually not much of a fan of cod in my grocery store. In my mind cod is a generic white fish that is best suited for dishes like fish and chips, particularly since it I usually can’t get it with the skin on. However, the wild Alaskan black cod I just picked up was well worth the high sticker price. I used the technique I used in my pan roasting fish fillets post to cook the cod. I served it with a side of southern style black eyed peas. I’ll do a black eyed peas post once I perfect my recipe.

David Zinczenko recommends trying to eat avocado everyday. I target eating two avocados a week. This is what Zinczenko had to say about avocados “Here’s what often gets lost in America’s fat phobia: Some of these fats are actually good for you. More than half the calories in each creamy green fruit comes from one fo the world’s healthiest fats, a kind called monounsaturates. These fats differ from saturated fats in that they have one double-bonded carbon atom, but that small difference at the molecular level amounts to a dramatic improvement to your health. Numerous studies ahve shown that monounsaturated fats both improve your cholesterol profile and decrease the amount of triglycerides (more fats) floating around in your blood. That can lower your risk of stroke and heart disease. Worried about weight gain? Don’t be. There’s no causal link between monounsaturated fats and body fat.” In Four Hour Body, Tim Ferris says that avocado and tomato are the only two fruits that are ok to eat on normal days.
