Great Tilapia recipes
Cooking Light has some great-sounding tilapia recipes in the January 2008 issue. Here's a link to their website with three different recipes. I tried the recipe pasted in below for roasted tilapia with tomatos and olives -- added fresh mushrooms as well -- it was delicious. Anyway, thought I'd share this with others, since we are all often in a food rut. Happy dining!

That sounds pretty good. Tilapia is one of the only fish I can stand - I like to cook it in foil also - I usually add a lot of pre-made mango pico de gallo, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
