Tilapia with Grilled Peppers and Onion

What You Will Need:


½ Inch thick slices of White Onion
Sweet Bell Peppers, sliced
4 Tilapia Fillets
*Salt(to taste)
*Pepper(to taste)
Jalapeno, thinly sliced
Garlic, minced(optional)
Olive oil
**Tortillas


*I substituted the salt and pepper with some Cajun seasoning. This was just a personal preference.
**With the tortillas, you can make this dish into fish tacos.
***You can put this on the grill, I don’t have one. The stove top worked out just fine


Make It:


Heat stove top.


Cook the sliced vegetables until soft. Add a little salt and pepper


Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper, heat the skillet. Add a little olive oil so the fish doesn’t stick. Cook the fish to your preference.


Serve. I plated this dish with the fish on top of the bed of vegetables. If you would like to make tacos, warm the tortillas and add some veggies along with a cut of fish.

Stuffed Bell Peppers

I made these stuffed bell peppers for meatless Monday.


What you will need:


1 package of Meatless Ground Crumbles
1 package of Frozen Corn
1.5 cups of Your favorite Chunky Salsa
1.5 cups Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup of Your favorite Shredded Cheese(I prefer cheddar)
4-6 Bell Peppers(the green ones are usually cheaper and easier to stuff)
1 cup of water


Make It:


Heat the oven to 400 degrees


Cook the crumbles, corn, and salsa until heated through. Remove from heat and stir in rice and your cheese. Spoon the mixture into the peppers (you can cut the peppers in half if you like, i find it easier to keep them whole)


Put them into a baking dish and pour water into the bottom, Bake for 30 - 35 minutes



My peppers are washed and ready to go


Mixed together some corn, salsa, rice, and meatless ground crumbles


The peppers are stuffed and ready to be put into the oven


Stuffed Pepper Ready to be enjoyed
