The following recipes are a list of my go-to healthy meals that are typically quick, easy, and can be made for 1 person without too much effort.


Quick & Easy Tilapia and Tomatoes
Recipe courtesy of Foodie Test Kitchen aka Me

Ingredients

2 lbs Tilapia fillets
2-3 heirloom tomatoes
4 cloves minced garlic
oil or cooking spray
salt

Directions

1. Heat non-stick skillet on medium-high heat until nice and hot. Spray with non-stick cooking spray - I use this to keep the calories low, but you could use olive oil instead.

2. Add garlic to the pan and saute for a few seconds. Start adding the tilapia without overcrowding. Sprinkle salt over entire pan. Turn fish over after 2-3 minutes. There should be a nice brown crispness. Remove fish from the pan after 2 more minutes.

3. After all of the fish has been cooked, add chopped heirloom tomatoes, stirring frequently to ensure even cooking. Once they are nice and soft, pour everything from the pan on top of the fish.





Total Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 6

Notes: I make this as a super fast, healthy and cheap lunch. One piece of tilapia (roughly 1/4 lb) + a 1/4 of a tomato keeps this lunch under $5, even from whole foods.
