Just called my wife to see what she wants for Dinner tonight and her response "Something Light, we have had Meat heavy dishes the last 3 nights", and all she could come up with is baked tilapa not becuase it what she wants but that what she could think of. I was planning on having Trout this weekend. Any LIGHT receipes or dinner ideas, I can make when i get home? PLEASE come to my rescue.

    Sorry - I love tilapia. I love fish. I try to have fish at least three times a week.

    or grill the shrimp. Grilled Shrimp and a salad is a fav in my house. Another favorite in my house is a salad with grilled chicken breast, some pineapple or mandarin oranges and a light honey mustard dressing. Yum!

    Tonight we are having chicken teriyaki. I grill some b/s chicken breasts and baste with teriyaki glaze, slice those up and serve over rice with LOTS of steamed veggies (broccoli, squash, zucchini, carrots). You can pour some extra teriyaki on top if you like. It's delicious! :)

    What about grilling the fish and making fish tacos? Just get some corn tortillas, shredded lettuce and a delicious hot salsa.

    When I grill chicken I always grill extra and keep it in the fridge for chicken salads.

    My favorite is Santa Fe chicken salad, just use your imagination!
