Cooking, a passion of mine. My meals are healthy, low calorie and fabulous tasting. I love creating marinades, sauces and etc. Overall, I am a very healthy cook. If I find a recipe I would like to try and it is unhealthy, I make it healthy. I do not always follow measurements, I go by taste. From my kitchen to yours, I hope you enjoy!

2 yellow chili peppers, seeds and ribs removed (optional, removing them, lowers heat level)
1 Green chili pepper, seeds and ribs removed (optional, removing them, lowers heat level)
1/4 White onion, chopped well
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Pinches of S&P
1t EVOO
1T Seasoned Rice Vinegar
1 small jar minced black olives
1 Lime juice
1 Lemon wedge juice
Mix all together in a bowl, taste to make sure taste okay, if so, cover and place in fridge to marinate. If not, add more of whatever ingredient you may want.
Fish...
1-1.5# shrimp (I used little ones) detailed and cleaned
2 Tilapia fillets, cut into pieces
1 Lemon juice
1 Lime juice
2 Pinches of S&P
In a bowl mix the everything together. Place fish on a sprayed cookie cooling rack that is on a cookie sheet.
Bake @400 until fish is cooked, approximately 20-25 minutes.
Take out and just let cool.
Tostada's...
6 yellow corn tortillas
Pam Spray
2 Cupcake pans
Warm the tortillas in microwave for about 30-40 seconds until soft.
Cut them about 1/2 inch thick strips
Press 4 strips into each cupcake tin. Crisscross and etc.
Spray a little spray over them and then back @400 for 10-15. Just want them golden brown.
Fill the mini tostada's with the baked fish mixture.
Top with some Green/Yellow chili pepper salsa.
Lime/Cilantro Brown Rice...
1 cup brown rice
2 cups water, plus some extra to keep rice moist
1 Lime juice
1 Handful cilantro
*optional, instead of water, cook rice in Chicken broth or stock. Or do a half/half. Gives more taste*
Cook Rice, add lime juice.
I just put a lid on and let cook. Check occasionally, stirring and maybe adding more water or broth.
Once rice is cooked, add cilantro, mix and serve.
Takes about 45 minutes on med heat to cook, just test the rice!
Enjoy!
