Can you believe it? It is snowing this morning. The ground is warm, though, so nothing is sticking. The temp is 36*. It’s just a bizarre picture out the kitchen window…heavy snowflakes falling on redbud trees in full bloom and on flower beds brimming with daffodils.
Monday is sometimes a late night for DH, so I try to plan something quick or something that can wait. Salmon is wonderful, as it can bake in about 12-15 minutes. If DH calls before he leaves work, supper is just a few minutes from the table when he walks in the door.

Tilapia with Parmesan Crust
I put the fish in a single layer on a baking pan lined with no-stick foil sprayed with cooking spray.
Drizzle the fish with lemon juice if you like, or add some to the Parmesan/mayo mixture.
Mix 1/2 c. freshly grated Parmesan cheese and 3 T. light mayonnaise and spread on fish.
Mix 1/2 c. Italian bread crumbs, 1 T. basil, 1 T. oregano, 1 tsp. dry onion flakes, salt/pepper and sprinkle it over the fish.
Bake at 400*F for 10-15 minutes, depending on how many fillets you are using and how thick they are.

I have been wanting to do a Parmesan Crusted Tilapia for a few weeks, but am unsure what kind of Tilapia to get…do you use fresh or frozen???? Thanks!
Either fresh or frozen will work. I prefer fresh when I can get it, but we live in a very small town and don’t often have the choice. If frozen, I let it thaw before cooking. Enjoy! ~~Rhonda 🙂
waiting on your Easter menu
Oh, yes! Easter. I wasn’t thinking about that when I made the menu. LOL
We’re visiting family that day, so I’ll leave the menu up to my DDIL. I’ll report back next week. 🙂 ~~Rhonda
