Mediterranean Sardine Bites

Despite their small size, these savory sardine bites pack a large nutritional punch and keep you stable and satisfied for hours afterward. They can also make for a light lunch with a side salad. Switch up the flavor combos if you like other garnishes like hot sauce, pickles or herbs! Rich and flavorful enough to stand on their own, canned sardines are packed with protein and heart-healthy omega-3s, making them ideal for keto, paleo, and Mediterranean diets.
