Catfish Pepper Soup

Catfish pepper soup is a beloved Nigerian postpartum dish — spicy, warming, and rich in protein. The combination of fresh catfish, scotch bonnet peppers, and aromatic spices is traditionally served to new mothers to promote recovery and milk flow. Catfish is low in mercury, and the spices are all culinary-safe while breastfeeding.

Always confirm with your doctor or lactation consultant before making dietary changes while breastfeeding.
