Mmm... and darn! That's where my head went was to make tacos! LOL Okay, so instead:

If Chicken Parm met Asia and Had Potato-Babies Recipe
- Clean 2-3 starchy potatoes, skin, and dice large. Drop into a pot of boiling water, boil until tender.
- Meanwhile, put about 1/2 cup shelled pistachios in a food processor. Pulse to make a fine crumb. Dump pistachios in a shallow dish. Add 1 cup whole wheat bread crumbs. Season with pepper, garlic powder, cayenne, and onion powder. Clean the tilapia, pat dry. Dredge in whole wheat flour, dip in egg whites, then put in pistachio mixture. Coat evenly.
- In a saucepan, heat about 2 TBSP olive oil. Gently lay fillets in, turning only once until fish flakes. Remove from oil, drain on paper towels. Wipe out pan with paper towel. Empty can of tomatoes into saute pan, keep on medium heat. Add oregano, garlic powder, onion powder. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer about 10 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes, then return to the hot pot. Add 1/2 cup of Greek Yogurt, salt and pepper to taste, mash.
- In another sauce pan, add 1 TBSP canola oil and heat. Slice cabbage thin (think cole slaw thickness). Add cabbage to hot oil, turning frequently with tongs. In a small bowl, combine 2 TBSP white wine vinegar, 2 tsp soy sauce, a grind of black pepper, and 1 TBSP honey. Dump this vinegar mix on top of just-wilted cabbage, toss to coat and remove from heat.

To plate: Use a scoop of the mashed potatoes as the base. Nestle a mound of hot slaw next to the potatoes. Perch the tilapia fillet across both. Drizzle with tomato sauce (it's also delicious in the mash). Enjoy!
