    I am sorry I am a little late to this party, but we have a decent recipe that our kids love

    slice and steam zucchini in microwave
    slice tomatoes thinly
    take tilapia and salt/pepper both sides
    Spray a pan and place fish in pan
    Cover with zucchini, tomatoes, salt/pepper, Italian spices, Motzarella cheese (2% milk if possible)

    Sometimes I layer the zucchini/tomatoes with the cheese a bit more (like lasagna), but this will work as well. Just be sure to salt/pepper and spice the veggies and the fish. Bake at 400 until done (about 15-20 minutes).

    A little seasoning and mustard....and bake in the oven. Very plain, but that's what I like. :-)

    Our go-to Tilapia recipe.

    chili rubbed tilapia-
    4 tilapia filets
    1 1/2 tbsp. chili powder
    1/2 tbsp. old bay seasoning
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    2 tbsp extra light olive oil

    combine spices in a bowl. sprinkle and rub all over the filets and set on a piece of parchment paper or a plate. meanwhile, heat olive oil in a medium skillet to medium-medium high.
    Add filets and fry about 3-4 minutes per side only turning once. Check that fish flakes easily with a fork and youre done.


    I got this recipe from eating well at http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/chili_rubbed_tilapia_with_asparagus_lemon.html
    but I tweaked it a little. The web page has the nutrition content BUT it includes asparagus and lemon juice which probably shaves off some of the calories.
