4 Ways to Enjoy the Lenten Season at Bob Evans
For many people across the country, March 5th, Ash Wednesday, marks the beginning of the Lenten Season. Those who celebrate often skip eating meat on Fridays, opting for fish as the hero of their dinner dish. While the “Fish Friday” tradition is rooted in a religious belief, eating fish comes with a host of health benefits.
For example, fish are rich in omega 3 fatty acids, essential nutrients that can lower your triglycerides and blood pressure, supporting a healthier heart and brain. Fish are also high in protein, and are filled with essential vitamins like Vitamin D, Vitamin B2, calcium and phosphorous, and minerals like iron, zinc, iodine, magnesium and potassium.
