Customize your way: Not a fan of fish? Top with marinated grilled tofu for a vegetarian spin. Add some crunch with crumbled seed-based crackers or a little spice with a dash of hot sauce.

Dietitian Tip: Have leftover toppings? Use them on top of mixed greens or in a lettuce wrap for lunch the next day!
