Scrumptious Fishcakes

84

Quick, simple, and incredibly tasty, these Thai fishcakes are great for an easy weeknight dinner or make a wonderful addition to lunchboxes. Packed with herbs and vegetables which aid immune support, clear congestion, and support bone health, these delicious morsels are also a great source of protein, B vitamins, iodine, and essential fatty acids from the fish. In my experience, most things in the shape of a muffin are inviting, so even the fussiest of eaters like these – give them a go!
