Bento 52 | Supporting my tired husband with a stomach-friendly 'Cod Foil Bake'

Here is today's bento menu:

・Rice (with plum yukari seasoning)
・Pickled plum
・Cod foil bake
・Sweet potato simmered in lemon
・Steamed vegetables and boiled egg (broccoli, carrot, bell pepper)
・Cherry tomatoes
・Lettuce
・Kiwi fruit

Since my husband is feeling a bit worn out, I made a stomach-friendly menu today.

Cod is low in fat and easy on the digestive system. It is also rich in vitamin D, and consuming it with oil (butter in this case) improves absorption.

Also, by adding komatsuna (Japanese mustard spinach), the calcium and vitamin D work together to not only strengthen bones but also help prevent osteoporosis.

I'll share the recipe for the 'Cod Foil Bake' that I made as the main dish.

[Cod Foil Bake (1 serving)]
Ingredients
・Cod: 1 fillet
・Komatsuna: approx. 20g
・Salt, butter: as needed
・Ponzu sauce: 2 tsp

Instructions

1. Spread aluminum foil in a frying pan, place the cod and chopped komatsuna on it, and sprinkle with salt.

2. Top with a small amount of butter, then close and wrap the foil.

3. Add water (about 200cc) to the frying pan, cover with a lid, and steam for about 15 to 20 minutes.

4. Once the cod is cooked through, drizzle with ponzu sauce to finish.

It's easy to make in a frying pan, so it's recommended for busy mornings.
I hope my husband enjoys it! 😊

Please take care of yourselves and stay healthy, everyone. 🍀

Thank you for reading until the end.
