Smoked Mackerel, Beets, Apples, and Bread Crisps
Smoked mackerel, a Scandinavian standby, packs plenty of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Combined with beets, apples, and bread crisps it makes a healthy snack.
Ingredient
- 2 slices pumpernickel bread, torn into bite- sized pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for garnish
- 1/4 cup Greek-style yogurt
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
- 2 (4.2-ounce) cans oil-packed smoked mackerel, drained and flaked
- 1 (8-ounce) package cooked beets (such as Melissa's), drained and chopped
- 1 apple, cored and diced
- fresh dill, for garnish
- lemon zest and lemon wedges, for serving
Direction
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Toss bread with oil and 1/4 teaspoon pepper on a 10x15-inch rimmed baking sheet. Spread into an even layer. Bake, stirring halfway through, until crisp, about 12 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, for sauce, whisk together yogurt, lemon juice, vinegar, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Serve bread, smoked mackerel, beets, and apple with sauce. Garnish with dill and additional black pepper. Serve with lemon zest and wedges.
