Tilapia, broccoli, and mixed mash. 4/20/26

Tilapia seems to be held in low esteem by chefs and fish eaters. I find the fillets that I get frozen from Costco to be a tasty, cost-effective entree for John and me. As usual John cooked the fish and … Continue reading

Fish sandwiches with beans and slaw. 3/27/26

We opted for something easy tonight. I enjoy having these crunchy but low-calorie fish fillets in the freezer. They cook up in the air fryer in about 12 minutes. Along side of our open-faced fish sandwiches I heat up some … Continue reading

Open-faced shrimp taco. 3/24/26

One problem I have with tacos is that I eat them too fast! I have the taco cradled in my hand and it is impossible to put down without the insides falling apart. My open-face taco is like a tostada … Continue reading

Tilapia with mustard sauce. 3/21/26

It’s springtime and definitely the time for asparagus! Tonight’s dinner was quick-cooking tilapia, some mashed potatoes left over from last night, and big, fat asparagus. The mustard sauce goes well with all three!

Convenience food. 3/12/26

We did not feel like going through the mess of a complicated dinner so we opted for air-frying fish fillets and making a packaged salad. It was easy and we enjoyed it.
