Easy Sole Meuniere
Ingredients
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 fresh sole fillets, 3 to 4 ounces each
6 tablespoons unsalted butter (use extra virgin olive oil)
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
6 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley (I used green onion; didn't have parsley)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Have 2 heat-proof dinner plates ready
Combine the flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large shallow plate. Pat the sole fillets dry with paper towels and sprinkle one side with salt.
Heat 3 tablespoons of butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium heat until it starts to brown. Dredge 2 sole fillets in the seasoned flour on both sides and place them in the hot butter. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook for 2 minutes. Turn carefully with a metal spatula and cook for 2 minutes on the other side. While the second side cooks, add 1/2 teaspoon of lemon zest and 3 tablespoons of lemon juice to the pan. Carefully put the fish filets on the ovenproof plates and pour the sauce over them. Keep the cooked fillets warm in the oven while you repeat the process with the remaining 2 fillets. When they're done, add the cooked fillets to the plates in the oven. Sprinkle with the parsley, salt, and pepper and serve immediately.

Simple Pasta Tuna Salad
Since I HATE veggies, I used pasta that is made from veggies (1/2 my daily requirements in one meal)
306 Cal per serving (This recipe will give me 3 Servings ( You can use the whole box to double it up if you want)
I used half box of the Ronzoni Garden Delight Tricolor Rotini. Enriched carrot, tomato & spinach pasta blend with a half serving of vegetables per 2 oz. portion.
2 TB Miracle Whip
2 TB Sweet relish
2 cans Light Starkist TUNA0 -
Monday night's supper:
South African Salmon (3.75 ounces)
Cooked Carrots (3/4 cup)
Steamed Broccoli (1 cup)
South African Salmon
2 lbs. wild-caught salmon fillets...rinse and place on baking pan lined with parchment paper
Salt and pepper fillets.
For sauce, combine the following:
1/2 cup sour cream
juice of one lemon
1 T. olive oil
1.5 t. garlic powder
1.5 t. coriander
1.5 t. cumin
Evenly distribute sauce over fillets and bake in a 400 degree oven - ten minutes for each inch of thickness of your fillets.
Cooked Carrots: (2 servings - the kids weren't interested!)
8 ounces baby carrots, sliced (or not!)
1/4 t. salt
1/2 T. brown sugar
1 T. butter
Simmer carrots in just enough water to cover, until barely fork-tender (about 30 minutes.) Pour off most of the remaining water; add salt, brown sugar, and butter. Stir, let warm through...make sure they're tender enough for you...and you're done!
Steamed Broccoli:
(Actually boiled, not steamed!) Measure the amount of broccoli that you need (I do one cup per person.) Bring an inch or so of water to a boil in a saucepan, add broccoli, and cook ONLY two minutes. Drain - I actually drain my serving on a paper towel because I don't want any stray water on my plate! Salt to taste - I like the coarse-ground sea salt on this!

For all who are not very fond of fish and like to have it small doses
I like this recipe very much, because you can change it to whatever ingredients (vegetable, fish, sea food) you have in the fridge. And it is done in about 15 minutes.
Pasta with salmon sauce:
Salmon sauce: 6 servings (I had one and froze the others)
200 g smoked salmon (in slices)
250 ml Rama Cremefine (alternatively, use cream cheese and milk)
120 g peas (or other vegetable, whatever you like)
200 ml low-fat milk
scallions
olive oil
lemon juice
herbs, salt, pepper
Calories per serving (without pasta): about 150
Roast the scallions with a bit of olive oil, cut the salmon in small pieces and add. Add cremefine, milk and peas and cook. Add some lemon juice and whatever herbs you like, and serve it with your favorite type of pasta (and a salad on the side).

didnt think to take a pic of this dish DUH! but it was tasty!
VERY EASY one here... as I am no "Becky Crocker" lol
Orange team captian BTW
I used 1 frozen wild caught Orange roughy filet. sliced up a few slivers of each colored bell pepper (they were onsale at my grocery store 10/$10 so I stocked up the colored peppers are usually expensive)
used 1 tablespoon of butter. sprinkle with seafood seasoning. put fillet and peppers in foil pocket and bake for 30 min.
2 corn tortillas
1 wedge laughing cow lite cheese any flavor. Most are very rich so they double as cheese and sour cream! use half a wedge for each taco.
You can also use shredded pepper jack.
cut fillet in half and split veggies between the two tortillas.
AND ENJOY!!!!
You can add any veggies you like. mushrooms and onions would be great too.
I have used shrimp in place of the Roughy and thats very tasty, its my "at home" version of a Wahoo's fish taco.0 -

Ingredients:
- Shrimp

- Heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil in a large skillet (this step is optional)
- Add shrimp and stir fry (cook) over high heat for 1 1/2 minutes.
- Add vegetables and stir fry for 3 minutes.

Ilana - Purple Team
Thai Hot and Sour Shrimp Soup
Serves 4.
2 cups low-sodium or homemade chicken stock, or mushroom stock (I made mine from scratch - see below)
1/2 lb shrimp, raw with shells on
1/2 tsp chili paste, or to taste
6 mushrooms, sliced
1/2 tsp lime zest plus juice of 1/2 lime
1 tbsp fish sauce
A handful of bean sprouts (optional)
A few cilantro leaves, for garnish (optional)
In sauce pan, simmer stock and shrimp for 10 minutes. Remove shrimp and set aside to cool a bit. Add the chili paste, mushrooms, a tiny bit of the lime zest, half of the lime juice and the fish sauce to the pot, and continue to simmer. Peel the shrimp and add them back to the pot. After 30 seconds or so, remove pot from the heat.
No-salt added soup stock (I made this since I find there is enough salt in the fish sauce already and I bloat very easily from salt):
- 1 onion cut in half and sliced
- 6 gloves garlic unpeeled
- 2 carrots peeled cut in 1/2
- 1 parsnip
- 5 medium mushrooms
- 2 small bay leaves
- handful of peppercorns
- 6 cups water
Add all ingredients to a pot. Boil 5 minutes then simmer for 1 hour. Strain stock into a another pot.
I also served the soup with a mango salad.
