We've cooked a lot of meat already and I think it's now time to try seafood recipes.  Why eat Seafood? Because seafood has lots of benefits for example, Crab - it is low in calories and also a good source of omega 3 which can improve memory and decrease the chances of heart attack and certain cancers. It is also a good source of vitamins A, C and B vitamins and minerals like Zinc and Copper. Yes, it does contains fat but  it is generally unsaturated fat which is considered heart healthy. There are lots of ways to cook a crab but in this article, we will try a very delicious and healthy dish together with mushrooms.
