Nutrition - Seafood

NZ Seafood is a readily available, extremely nutritious food. Not only is it versatile in the ways that it can be cooked, but it is a great addition to many dishes and combines with foods amazingly well or can be enjoyed sim-ply by itself. Above are just 3 different ways to enjoy seafood 1. Crayfish 2. Prawn Salad 3. Steamed Mussels.
