Pan Grilled Fish and Oven Roasted Vegetables 297 Calories

Pan Grilled Fish and Oven Roasted Vegetables

















Ok here is an easy and quick meal.  I seasoned my vegetables and fish using my olive oil seasoning blend link here:   http://happyhousebunkie.blogspot.com/2017/01/olive-oil-seasoning-blend.html .  I get the vegetables at Sam's Club in the fresh vegetable cooler by the celery, lettuce area.  For this serving I poured 4 cup of veggies (break cauliflower and broccoli into smaller pieces if needed) on a foil lined sheet pan for easy clean up for 3 people (I forgot to take a picture and the plate is one I had taken has cauliflower, broccoli, yellow squash and zucchini squash in it.  But you get the idea.  I will update this when I cook it again).  Follow these directions on how to bake it  http://southerndiet.blogspot.com/2016/09/baked-zucchini-squash-and-bell-peppers.html  .  As you see in the recipe you can use any fresh vegetables.  It takes about 2 minutes to prepare and 35 to 45 minutes to cook.  You kind of decide how cooked you prefer your veggies.   Ok for this serving of vegetables seen on the plate was 162 calories for 1 1/2 cups.  The fish I cooked in a real good nonstick skillet with a tablespoon of my oil blend and a tablespoon of butter and seasonings you prefer with 4 Members Mark tilapia fillets.  Each fillet is around 3 to 4 oz and should serve 4 people. In my case it served 3 because my daughter ate 2.   Cook on medium high or higher, when the butter starts to turn brown it's time to cook the fish.  Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side.  Each serving of fish is 135 calories, that is for 3 oz.'s.  So this dish has a total of 297 calories.  If your really hungry you could add 1/2 a fish or some more veggies to your plate.  But keep it under 400 calories.  You can probably make it less calories than that by baking the fish.  But I prefer to cook my fish this way.  Because you know it's how southern women diet! lol


A crucial part of everyone's dieting is will power.  Second portion control with good choices.  Third is physical activity.

Sam's Parmesan Encrusted Tilapia

October 19, 2016 MENU 



Most of these meals were great low calorie meals.  Breakfast I had an egg over easy with a piece of toast.  I ate a snack of goldfish crackers before lunch when I felt a little hungry.  For lunch I picked from my many leftovers and choose BBQ pork steak.   Now at this point I have done all of my food diary and I was doing real good.  But I wasn't that hungry.  I dug in the freezer for a quick meal and found these Parmesan crusted tilapia I had purchased at Sam's.    If your looking for a quick and delicious low calorie meal you need to purchase a bag of these.  One fish is plenty with some healthy sides.  Each piece averages 4oz of meat.  The piece I ate today was 4.5oz and was only 250 calories.  You bake it and it comforts you like your eating fried fish without all the calories.  I finished the day with a total of 1054 calories for the day.  I was under by 276 calories.   If you like my meal ideas just check out my diary for a list of ingredients for that meal.  And yes! I measured and weighed everything.  A crucial part of everyone's dieting is will power. The second part is portion control with good choices and third is physical activity.


It's how southern women diet!
