If you’ve heard it once, you’ve heard it 100 times.

WE LOVE TINNED FISH.

They are a delicious snack, full of brightness, flavor, and nutrients. And even better, you don’t have to cook any seafood to enjoy them!

Tinned fish is even more important and useful during these quarantined times because they are shelf-stable and can be the protein backbone for all sorts of meals. —> see all our other tinned fish recipes.

A simple and well-thought-out sandwich is hard to beat. This sandwich combines the briny and salty sardines, the acidic crunch of pickled carrots, spicy and creamy Calabrian mayo, all topped off with crunchy potato chips.

Use this recipe as a blueprint for more tinned fish sandwiches:

• Any tinned fish can be substituted – tuna, mackerel, salmon, clams

• “Quickle” any crunchy veggies you have on hand – radishes, onions, cucumbers, asparagus

• Feel free to add more to the mayo – lemon zest, grated garlic, chopped herbs

• Choose any bread that you have! If you are stuck at home and want to try making some for yourself, try this simple focaccia recipe from Bon Appetit 

• Obviously, any potato chips will work, but we are partial to the Salt & Vinegar Sal de Ibiza chips

And remember, we are still here to supply all the goodies to make life still feel as normal as it can!
