It’s Tasty Tuesday!!!!
The key to living a healthy lifestyle consistently is to ENJOY the foods you’re eating and the activities that you’re doing to stay active. If we are never going back, we have to honestly like the new way!!!
The recipe below is one of my go-to dinners because it’s easy and tastes just as good reheated as it does when it comes out of the oven. That’s super important for me, because I’m of the “Cook once, eat off what I’ve made for the rest of the week” mindset. I love tilapia!! I promise you’ll be very full! If you’d rather substitute boneless, skinless chicken breast or lean pork chops, you could easily do that too.
Baked Tilapia & Veggies with Red Potatoes
Yields 3 Servings or Individual Meals
Baked Tilapia & Veggies, Just Out Of The Oven
-1 pound of fresh tilapia, which from Meijer, yielded 3 full filets. (Btw–you could use frozen and Aldi has awesome frozen tilapia.)
-Spritz 9×13 inch baking dish with olive oil Pam.
-Sprinkle fresh garlic (I use the kind in a jar packed in water) and onion sliced on bottom of baking dish.
-Lay out the tilapia filets over the garlic & onion
–Sprinkle tilapia with any spices you like. I used dill & lemon pepper this time.
– Add your favorite veggies. I like grape tomatoes halved, asparagus spears (I buy ’em already cut and ready) and thick sliced mushrooms. I add green olives too and they’re DELISH!!
-Pour a little lemon juice on top of everything and more seasoning for the veggies. A bit of sea salt & ground pepper does the trick for me, but be more creative, if you’d like!
Ready to go into the oven! I baked some extra asparagus to go along with it!!
-Bake the whole thing at 350* til done. I like it well done, so I leave mine in 25 minutes.
-While it’s baking, boil 4 Cups of red potatoes in fat free chicken broth. I simply count out 12 small red potatoes.
When both the fish & the potatoes are done, I like to use glass containers to portion out my meals. Each portion gets 1/3 of the tilapia & veggies along with 4 small red potatoes. As you can see, this makes 3 large, filling meals!! I put light ranch on my potatoes, which is SO yummy!!
Everyone have a HAPPY Tuesday and let me know what you think of this food idea by posting a comment for everyone to read!!
All is Well❤️
