Have a little champion to feed?

It's back to school time...

We found this article about HEALTHY EATING FOR YOUNG ATHLETES and it's no wonder that it mentions FISH as one of the first super foods:

''Fish is one of the foods a child can eat that is good for him and for his growth as an athlete. Fish is a viable source of protein and omega-three fatty acids, which can help keep down inflammation in injuries experienced by children athletes.''

Recipe - Honey Roast Salmon

The delicious natural sweetness of the honey makes this popular with children. It's versatile too, as it tastes great served either hot or cold. Great with jacket potato, french beans, salad.

INGREDIENTS: 4 x 150 salmon fillets, 55g butter, 4tbsp clear honey, large pinch sea salt

HOW:

- Preheat the oven (200C/400F/Gas6). Melt the butter in a small pan, add the honey and salt, mix well.

- Lay the salmon in an ovenproof dish. Pour the mix over the salmon and set it aside to marinate for 15 minutes.

- Spoon the mixture over the fillets again and place in the middle of the oven for about 15 - 20 minutes. Check regularly to ensure it doesn't burn.

- Remove from the oven and serve hot.

''The $15 Challenge was designed as a reminder that cooking good, healthy food is possible on a limited budget. It's especially timely with a recent South Australian Council of Social Service report finding that rising food costs mean low-income families are struggling to eat well.''

''From there, the noodles can easily be made with chicken or seafood or be kept vegetarian. Tony buys a single chicken leg fillet from Poultry Cuisine and then 100g of small shelled prawns from Cappo Seafood. Realising there is still plenty in the bank, he makes a second visit to Cappo for a whole squid. ''
