I have unintentionally become pescatarian recently because I've come to realize that fish have a lot of nutritional value. So far, my meal plan looks like this:
Breakfast
- 3 eggs
- 1 slice of Ezekial bread toasted
- Mixed berry smoothie with banana, peanut powder, collagen peptides, chia, creatine, non-fat greek yogurt, and water
Lunch
- 2 tin cans of sardines, mashed
- Non-fat greek yogurt
- Tzaziki sauce
- Lemon
- Black pepper
- 2 slices of Ezekial bread toast or one ezekial tortilla, depending on my mood
Dinner
- Shrimp kebabs made with olive oil and veggies
- 1 corn roll or asparagus
Some days I'll switch out my dinner for a salmon salad / salmon wrap, or I'll change the shrimp kebabs for a shrimp ceasar wrap with a nice avocado oil based dressing. Being pescatarian is really great because it's easier to make, shelf life lasts very long, and it's generally cheaper than buying meats.

Maybe I'm just tired after a 13 hour construction work day, but what is ezekial bread? Is this a christian bread?! And why?
I googled it and it just seems to be whole grain bread?
I have:
Breakfast: random toast (peanut butter) or oatmeal (dried fruits)
Lunch: Apple, cheap superstore granola bar, Sandwiches - Winnipeg rye, lettuce sand which meat, homemade mayo, cheddar, random other ingredients.
or
Bulk homemade burritos - whole wheat tortillas, black beans, eggs, salsa, cheese, rice, random other ingredients.
Supper: wild variety of different meals.

I have a weird diet that works well for me.
I don't like fish. So it's chicken thighs for me. I get the organic ones to avoid antibiotics. I take omega-3 supplements. Sardines are supposed to be very good for us, but I just can't do it.
Breakfast: some baby carrots, and a handful of roasted cashews, plus coffee.
Main meal at lunchtime: spinach, brussel sprouts, broccoli, tomato, and onion heated up in the microwave, while the chicken pan-fries in olive oil. Topped with a simple Parmesan cheese sauce. Plus an apple.
Evening meal: frozen blueberries with a bit of instant coffee, cinnamon, sugar, and milk. A square of 85% dark chocolate.
I snack on nuts and drink decaf coffee throughout the day.
This has been my routine for over three years now. This is everything I eat, I don't go out. The meals have varied only slightly over the years. For instance, I'm currently experimenting with replacing the chicken with lentils once or twice a week, to save some money and get a bit more fiber and reduce the calories, but it might be too much fiber.

Ezekial bread
I'm not a big bread fan, due to it not being much better than junk food IMO, but that stuff looks great!
Shrimp kebab
A good reminder to me that a pescatarian diet includes non-fish seafood. That said, I haven't checked on the nutritional profiles of crustaceans for a long time. Not sure how 'healthy' or not they're currently considered...
Btw, for my wraps, I like to have [these](
https://www.google.com/search?q=ole+mexican+foods+xtreme+wellness+wraps&udm=2
), which are mainly made out of resistant starches and only have about half the typical # of kcals. Altho when I get around to it, I'm going to try another round of making my own oat-flour wraps as a similar health upgrade.
Anyway, in terms of fish, I have salmon fairly often, and a bit of canned tunafish, and some omega-3 capsules every day. Diet is mostly soup and stew-based in general, with fresh veggies and some low-cal noodles. Air-fryer is also an essential food prep tool, as well as the spiral elements on my oven, great for precision grilling.

Reading the comments mine might be the weirdest...
::: spoiler Breakfast:
- bowl of all bran and special k with cow milk
- "adult formula" blended with almond milk. It's like feeding tube stuff as a dry powder. I struggle to eat enough calories per day without it so my doctor prescribed it, it's "nutritionally complete"
- electrolytes potion. Magnesium and vitamin C effervescent with a pinch of salt in coconut water
- small cup of Turkish coffee
- two squares of dark chocolate
:::
::: spoiler Lunch
- sliced strawberries and banana with cream
- low GI crunchy bread (Bürgen) with hummus
:::
::: spoiler Dinner
One of:
- vegetable and meat stew
- wholemeal spaghetti with nooch and olive oil and feta cheese
- chicken thigh with wild rice and cucumber salad
- salmon with wild rice and cucumber salad
- whatever leftovers are gifted to me (as long as it doesn't have sugar or loads of simple carbs)
