A lot of us rarely cook fish and this is sad since fish is such an excellent source of nutrition. Generally speaking, fish is low in saturated fat and calories. Fatty sea fish is a little higher in calories, but a majority of the extra calories come in the form of beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. A good rule of thumb is to include fish in your diet at least two times per week. Fish is an excellent source of several different types of vitamins and it is also high in protein. Protein is necessary for the growth and maintenance of muscles and body tissue.
If you want to cook Tilapia at home, simply preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and place 4 5-ounce tilapia fillets in a baking dish. Sprinkle the fish with 2 tsp ground cumin and 1 tsp ground black pepper, and pour a can of diced tomatoes into the dish. Add chilli powder to taste. Spinkle shredded low-fat cheese on top, about ¾ cup. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes. Bon appetite!
