- Sodium is on the higher side. The swaps below pull it down.
- Much of the energy comes from a fast starch such as white rice, white flour, or sugar.
- Fish here is a commonly eaten, lower-mercury choice when fully cooked. Follow your own pregnancy fish guidance.
- Shellfish should be fully cooked. This is an allergen for many people.
