Sorry for the hiatus but things have been insane around here. On Labor Day we were all sick with strep- YUCK! While we were at the pediatrician's office waiting for the strep test results, I was reading an article about the importance of eating fish at least once a week . As you know I am a sucker for all things in print so tonight I am making tilapia for dinner. I had to come up with my own recipe since most of the ones I found either involved frying the fish or dousing it in lots of butter. Tilapia is a great fish for kids because the flavor is mellow.
Slow roasted tomatoes:
1 T olive oil
1 head WHOLE cloves garlic
Fresh dill, parsley, thyme
salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar to bring out the sweet juices
-Add all ingredients to a 9x13 pan, cover, and cook at 350 for 45 min
Lemony tilapia:
1 lemon, thinly sliced
4-6 tilapia fillets with just a touch of lemon pepper seasoning (optional)
and a pinch of sugar sprinkled on each side
-take tomatoes out of the oven and intersperse fish and lemon slices
-spray with olive oil spray
-bake covered for another 20 minutes or till done
-spray with olive oil spray
