Crispy Cashew Coconut Tilapia Dinner

Well, my wordpress switch is here!! At first glance things look very much the same which is exactly what I wanted, but check out my “recipe index” tab up above. I LOVE this feature! I also now have a print link at the bottom of my recipes which I’ve been wanting for a long time. So, take a look around!!

One bummer is that all of my 600 plus google “foodie friends” wouldn’t transfer over. So please make sure you follow my blog all over again. I appreciated having all of you that accumulated over the year. Thanks everyone!!

Sunday night we had this delicious tilapia dinner. We don’t make a whole lot of fish in our house and I’m not sure why. It is so good. We picked up some great tilapia filets at Sprouts Farmer’s Market for pretty inexpensive. Make sure you make the warm tropical salsa I have linked below for the fish. I didn’t make it Sunday night and I wished I would have. It would have topped it off really nicely. Hope you’ll all enjoy!!
