Canned Seafood
While canned seafoods like tuna, crab, or shrimp may not be quite as tasty and nutritious as their fresh alternatives, they are a quick and easy source of ready-to-go protein. Try not to get all of your seafood from a can, but when you want something convenient and quick, like in this recipe, canned seafood is an excellent option to have around.
