Stuffed Tilapia {meal plan}
Monday, May 19th, 2008
This is one of my favorite dishes, right next to grilled asparagus, salmon, and stuffed garlic potatoes! Not only does this meal taste great, but it is super easy and quite quick to prepare. Pardon the absence of measurements, as this is a meal that you can measure out the amount you feel you will need to serve your family or guest…I just season and taste until it is to my liking. I usually serve this with jasmine rice, which has a great aroma and some Sangria or a nice lemon tea. The “Spiced Ginger Green Beans” are simply seasoned with a bit of olive oil, bean paste, ground ginger, brown sugar, salt, and drizzled with honey. Yum!

Cream Cheese
Fresh Spinach leaves, chopped

Directions: Slice a thin layer of your fillet from the top, cutting your fillet into half, without completely separating the top from the bottom (do not completely cut the top of). Place about 2-3 of your sliced tomato rounds on the bottom, lightly sprinkle the top of your tomatoes with black pepper. Now spoon your cream cheese mixture on top. Fold the top of your fillet on top of your cream cheese mixture.
Now season your tilapia with your spices and drizzle your lime or lemon juice on top. Place your shrimp on top of your seasoned fish and sprinkle a bit of salt and paprika on top of your shrimp. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and honey. Bake at 350 degrees until cooked.
