Dinner a few nights ago consisted of rice, a can of cream of chicken soup, and cubed chicken breast. Toss it all together, adding pepper and Italian seasoning, and there's your dish! I honestly ate it just like that with no sides, but next time I'll do it right with sides and the whole bit. =)
Ooh...and last night we had rotisserie chicken with mac n cheese and green beans...yum-o.

Dinner:
Tilapia:
~tilapia fillets
~(about 1tbsp per fillet) evoo (confused right now?) =)
~thyme
~pepper (red or black--very little if red)
~splash of anything else green in your cabinet...
~squirt of soy sauce
Heat pan (for about 30-40 seconds), add oil, then fish...cover both sides w/oil, then allow to begin cookng on med. Season up-side, flip, lightly season other side. About 1 minute before it's done, splash some soy on top, but mostly around the sides of the fish and let it cook in just a little bit.
Tip: if using red pepper, do NOT sprinkle onto fish directly from bottle! Try sprinkling on palm, then lightly blow it towards the pan and allow it to fall on fish. If you can barely see some on there, it's perfect.
Note: fish does like to fall apart when you flip it...be sure to use a big enough spatula and get it turned in one, swift motion.
Serve w/ rice, any veggies... beans, corn on cob, gr beans, asparagus, parsley potatoes, etc...

Wanna try it!
Want a random bit of useless information?
...In 2007, OKC was the fast-food capital of the U.S. and ranked in the top 10 in '99, '03, and '06(tied for No. 3 with Memphis and Charleston/Huntington, West Virginia. in '06)...
...Oklahoma City ranked No. 15 in the latest survey of "America's Fattest Cities" by Men's Fitness magazine...
...Portland [Oregon] (about the same population as OKC) residents are among the least frequent patrons of fast-food establishments in the nation, along with Anchorage, Boston and Portland, Maine...
Very random, I know...but you love me for it...and you think about what you're stuffing as you read this.
And, to balance out your craving for McDonald's fries right now, I'll give you a recipe for an alternative side from one of my new favorite sites: www.recipegoldmine.com
Dijon-Roasted New Potatoes
Coating the potatoes in Dijon mustard and a small amount of olive oil helps make them crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
1 spray cooking spray 1 teaspoon
olive oil
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 pounds uncooked new potatoes, quartered
Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Whisk together oil, mustard, paprika, thyme, salt and pepper in a large bowl; add potatoes and stir to coat.
Transfer potatoes to baking dish and roast 15 minutes; stir and roast until tender on inside, about 15 minutes more.Yields about 1 1/4 cups per serving.
