One of the most complete foods you can keep in a cupboard. A tin brings protein, omega 3 fat and calcium with zero carbs, and it keeps for years, which makes it the backup for the evening when the fridge is empty.
What to look for
- Packed in olive oil rather than soybean oil or tomato sauce with sugar
- Sardines, oil and salt as the ingredients
- Bone in and skin on for the most calcium, skinless and boneless for a milder taste
- BPA free tins if that matters to you
How to use it
Mash them with a little mayonnaise, mustard and lemon for a quick spread on cucumber slices, or warm them in their own oil with garlic and chilli. Being small fish, sardines are low in mercury.

The catch
The smell and the bones put a lot of people off, and they are not a snack for a shared office. Skinless and boneless tins are milder but lose some of the calcium.
