Tilapia, sweet potato and green beans
















So easy! We needed a quick dinner the night our friend was coming into town and this was perfect.
I had a tilapia fillet and Mike had salmon. Both were marinated the same way and cooked at the same time. Mine probably should have come out of the oven a bit earlier since it was thinner but I forgot and it was fine although a tiny bit over cooked.

Fish fillet
Lime
Seasonings (I used dill salt and pepper)
Sweet potatoes
Green beans

Start the oven at 450 degrees and put the cleaned sweet potatoes (with fork punctures) in foil. Cook those about an hour until very soft (or to cut down the time, microwave first and then bake less time). In the meantime, marinate the fish with the lime and seasonings to taste and refridgerate until ready to bake. Take out the potatoes and let cool a bit. Lower oven to 400 and bake fish for about 20 mins. While fish is baking, boil the green beans about 15 mins.

Season green beans with salt and pepper after draining them. Plate sweet potatoes, cut in half and fill with desired toppings. I used some unsweetened yogurt (very similar to sour cream) and salt and pepper. Yum! :)

Enjoy.
