Okay, I have been doing a lot of what one of my creative writing teachers called naval gazing in my blog lately, so I thought with the start of a new week, I'd shake things up a bit.
I have been trying to be good lately with what I have been eating, and I have been pretty successful (if you don't count the half gallon of homemade peanut butter and chocolate chip ice cream I just made last night and plan to check out tonight). This weekend I found a fish recipe that is sooo good, and is so low fat that I plan to have it more often. The recipe called for baking the fish, but I sautéed it In a little non butter (SmartButter or whatever it's called – it's the stuff that Andrew can eat because there's no dairy and practically no fat in it). I used a Tilapia fillet (I think Sole would work, too) and after sautéing it on one side for about 30 seconds, I turned it over, then spread on the Caribbean mix that I made up beforehand (canola oil, lime juice, hot sauce, salt and pepper – oh yeah, it's supposed to have lime "zest" and that was a mess since I used a real lime and had a heck of a time grating it. Next time, I use the stuff from the bottle!) And then I covered it and sautéed it for about 5 minutes. It was great!
Usually anything low fat tastes, well, low fat (meaning dry and flavorless) but this was fantastic. I think I'll be adding fish to my dinner plans a bit more in the future!
