Light Dinner

Tilapia Tacos in whole wheat tortillas with cabbage slaw & jicama mango salad

The tilapia is just barely floured and sauteed in some canola oil instead of deep fried. I added some fresh sliced jalapeno to the oil first to give it a little heat. The slaw is made with shredded green cabbage, red onion, cilantro, some green scallion, light sour cream, lime juice, salt and pepper.

I understand completely.

Salad in a Jar
This idea came across my dash a few days ago and we just recreated it for lunches. Dressing on the bottom, then the hard stuff: tomatoes, olives, beans, cukes and lettuce on top. I’ll probably make some quinoa or barley to add to the next batch of these. A hard-boiled egg would make for a well-rounded addition too.

Roasted Cauliflower
This is my favorite way to make cauliflower. I toss with olive oil and kosher salt and roast at 375 degrees until golden. Tonight I added it some into buttered pasta with grated pecorino cheese, but it’s excellent on it’s own as well.
