Try grilling. We had grilled tilapia & chicken(for those that don't eat fish)brush with olive oil and I used zesty Mrs Dash, sea salt and coarse pepper. Everyone tried the fish and loved it, even DD who swears she hates fish, she wanted more. And grilled yellow and zuchinni squash with onion on a grilling pan with caribbean Mrs. Dash and drizzled with olive oil, salt & pepper to taste and a salad with mixed greens.Quick and easy & delish! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

i pull it all apart,chicken tacos..or make roll-ups with salad fixings.
i have also plugged in the slow cooker out on the deck..

Make a Quinoa salad!
1/8 C. dry Quinoa per person to 1/4 C. boiling water ( make it like rice) turn to simmer w/lid on 15 mins.
1 bunch parsley chopped kind of fine, I use the stems also.
red bell pepper diced
tomato diced
red onion diced
mint , chopped
radish chopped
olive oil & lemon juice to taste,
kosher salt.
eat with pita, or crackers.
This and some Hummus.... I could eat like this every day!
