Dear Fitness and Wellness Enthusiasts,

I am not a big fish eater and therefore I don't cook it a lot. However, I have to say that I got inspired in the supermarket today and tried something new. I found a pre-seasoned quick and easy Tilapia Fish in the frozen foods section I dare ever look at. To my surprise was a healthy option! Beacon Light Steam Series: Tomato, Basil, and Garlic Tilapia. I cooked it tonight for dinner and served it with an arugula salad and brown rice. Below is the menu and nutritional information. What a delicious, light and healthy meal!

Hope you enjoy it!
In Good Health,
Dani S.
