These last few days have been hectic. We are in the middle of moving to a new home and packing has taken over our lives. Because we are limited on time, ingredients and space at the moment, I decided to make Veracruz style fish tostadas with Australis Barramundi.

Barramundi is new to our menu. It’s becoming a favorite because it’s not only delicious and easy to cook but I’ve recently found out that it’s a great way to get the protein one needs on a weekly basis. The U.S. Dietary guidelines recommend two servings of fish per week and making quick meals, appetizers and snacks with Australis Barramundi gives me peace of mind when it comes to feeding my family nutritious food.

Australis Barramundi is not a fishy-fish. Its high quality and nutritional value come from the careful harvest, hand-cut and flash freezing performed the same day. Locking in all the benefits until it’s ready to use. Plus, it is conveniently packaged in vacuum sealed single portions to avoid any waste. That’s great news for when I want to fix myself lunch for one.

Because Australis Barramundi is frozen, it’s a sustainable, responsibly ocean-raised fish available any time of the year. Since introduced to the U.S. and founded in 2004 Australis Barramundi has been heralded as the “perfect fish for changing the world,” and has been recognized by Monterey Bay Aquarium SeafoodWatch® as “Best Choice.”

Nothing can stop me now from keeping this on our menu. Between $7.99-$10.99/pound, I can easily feed my family a complete, pure, rich in omega-3’s meal. There are no traceable levels of mercury, PCB’s or other contaminants. I can’t ask for anything more.

Veracruz style fish is one of my favorite ways to enjoy white mild fish. I found it the perfect opportunity to prepare it with Australis Barramundi and the staple vegetables I have in my refrigerator. This fresh, summer-perfect appetizer is ready in minutes. If tostadas are not available, bake your own corn tortillas or fry them up a bit to make them crispy. Turning this dish into a taco meal works as well.
