as i approach 30 i've been trying to 'put away my childish ways' and get over some of my self-imposed fears and try some new things. a couple weeks ago one of my bffs and i decided that we should try to add fish to our diets. neither one of us eat anything that swims (crustacean or otherwise), but we recognize that there are health (and social) benefits to adding fish to our menus. so, we found a fish recipe that seemed harmless enough...and of course documented the evening thanks to her iphone.
| at the grocery store...we chose tilapia as it was recommended for being the mildest tasting fish (also it was what our recipe called for...how convenient!) |
| iris waiting for our fish to be packaged. |
| preparing the fish |
| the assembly line: fish, flour, egg, cornflakes (and recipe book, of course!) |
| cute plates with fish on them. helps make the adventure more fun. |
| ahh...the finished product. baked fish, mixed veggies and rice. and assorted dipping sauces to suit my palate. |
| the first bite. it's just meat, it's just meat, it's just meat... |
| iris' turn. no fear! |
| the reward for our efforts: chocolate peanut butter espresso freeze from cafe brazil. yummy! |

Try halibut. It's less fishy and more versatile than tilapia.
Yay for trying something new...so when can we all go for sushi? :)
We do need to try our next fish recipe. We can do it! That's our mantra!
Suzy, I'm think it's going to be a long while before we are sushi ready.
