HEALTHY SHEET PAN TILAPIA AND VEGGIES + MEAL-PREP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F.
• Heat olive oil (or butter) on low-medium heat in a small pan. Add garlic and saute on low for about 1 minute. Remove from heat and add lemon juice, parsley, oregano, and salt + pepper to taste.
• Arrange fish and veggies in a single layer on a sheet pan. Evenly pour the garlic spice mixture onto fish and veggies. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden.
• To meal prep: Cook 1 cup of brown rice according to package instructions. Divide rice into 4 meal prep containers. Place 1 tilapia fillet in each container along with a few carrots, asparagus, and broccoli. Cover and place in the fridge for up to 4 days. To reheat, microwave on high for 1-2 minutes or until steaming.

BROILED TILAPIA AND EGGPLANT WITH MOROCCAN PESTO

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Bring 3/4 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil in a small saucepan. Put the couscous in a medium heatproof bowl and stir in the boiling water. Cover the bowl and set aside until the couscous is tender, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
• Meanwhile, puree the garlic, cilantro, 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1/4 cup water in a blender. Pulse in the lemon zest, cumin, coriander, paprika and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Score the eggplant flesh in a 1/2-inch crosshatch pattern and place cut-side up on a foil-lined baking sheet. Brush with 2 tablespoons of the cilantro pesto and season with salt and pepper. Broil the eggplant, without turning, until browned and softened, 10 to 14 minutes.
• Lay the tilapia on another foil-lined baking sheet. Brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil until the fish is cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Brush each fillet with about 1 teaspoon pesto.
• Divide the fish, couscous and eggplant among plates. Mix the yogurt with 1 tablespoon water and drizzle on the eggplant. Top the fish with the remaining pesto and more cilantro. Serve with lemon wedges.
