Day 11

Tilapia, not typically my favorite fish. It is non-fatty and often very dry tasting. Not in my capable hands though. Another victory. The kids helped out today. They are starting to get excited about what is being cooked for dinner. They want to help, so I am gaining many things from this experiment, time with kids, new foods and expanding my taste palette.


This tilapia was another recipe that I found online, it is Baked Tilapia with a Garlic Cilantro sauce. Jasmine made the sauce, she added all the ingredients and then thicked it. A layer of that in a shallow pan, Tilapia and then another layer on top. Bake it for 15 minutes and you have this delicatacy. The kids wanted plain pasta to go with it (they always want plain pasta, no sauces), but I added the run off from the baking as a sauce for the pasta. Good choice.

The kids both ate their whole meal. Rougeh is not feeling well today, so he skipped dinner tonight. I had made him a container to take to work tomorrow, but Benjamin wants it for school. Benjamin says that this meal was better then the Glazed Pork, which is his litmus test for my experiment. The Glazed pork being the best and Koshry by far the worst. So new Favorite.

Side note, this may be a dish I will be cooking for our Christmas party. So if you are coming you will get to taste it. I am excited.

Tomorrow, Shrimp...
