Frozen Parm crusted oven baked tilapa, fresh sauteed green beans with a dab of butter & bacon bit, glass of Pinot Grigio. I should have also made myself a salad or some brown rice... this dinner felt very light. Those frozen Tilapa fillets are a time saver and so delicious. They are sold under the brand treasures of the sea and I believe available at walmart/big box stores- bj's, etc. I found them locally at marcs. This is a new addition to my diet, I typically don't eat much seafood besides albacore tuna in my salads. Trying to change things up and keep it interesting. I liked that these were still breaded.. but doable in calories & fat. The plain fish does not look appealing to me.
Do you like seafood?
-this meal not including the wine, but including the 1/2 pat of butter was 278 calories and 11 grams fat.
Looks Delish! Its amazing how much we over eat just by not paying attention to portion sizes!

ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment.. good luck on your fitness journey
I keep a package of those talapia in the freezer at all times for those nights I need a low maintenance, relatively quick dinner. :)
ReplyDeleteOur fav fish around here is to take a salmon fillet, rub on a little bit of olive oil, sprinkle with Garlic Powder and Seasoned salt, a thick sprinkling of dry dill and a couple tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese and then bake at 350 for about 34 minutes. Sooo good!!
