Skin superfoods: halibut and tomatoes The skin health benefits: The omega-3 fatty acids found in halibut help maintain elasticity in your skin, and may help protect it from UV radiation, says Giancoli. Also, tomatoes are chockfull of collagen-building vitamin C.

Think taking your fish oil supplement and multi-vitamin will do the trick? Think again, says Giancoli. It's way better to eat these foods than take supplements in pill form. "Nutrients work synergistically," she says, meaning they work best when they are coming from combinations of foods. So if you're just popping pills, you might not be getting the full benefits of the nutrients, she says.

Everything looks super delicious! Especially the halibut! I love fish, so this would be a great recipe.

I really like the Cumin Deviled Eggs recipe and the Dark Chocolate covered items sound terrific! I'm not entirely sure about the chocolate covered olives though! I really don't like fish so I do rely on a high grade omega 3 supplement with as much DHA as EPA.
