A Low Cal Dinner...


Tonight I needed something lighter for supper...First I sauteed 1 pound sliced mushrooms and a Tbsp of chopped garlic in a little bit of olive oil...

While the mushrooms cooked I sliced a container of grape tomatoes and about a half cup of pitted olives in half...

...then added them to the mushrooms with some dried thyme and sauteed a little longer...


While that cooked I seasoned some fish fillets - I used tilapia...
...the cooked vegetables came out of the pan and the fish went in...sauteed on both sides...
...some fresh basil was chopped and added to the cooked fish...

along with the cooked vegetables...


It was all served with whole wheat penne pasta...

...and yummy olive bread from a bakery.

...well I guess the bread wasn't low cal!

ELK - I'm finding taking pictures of food to be fun but also challenging...I don't think I have read about food week yet...

Ruth - It always helps to get some ideas for the question "What's for supper?" isn't it?

Char - I'm very glad I don't live too close to that bakery:)

rambling rose - Thanks!
