I missed a few days of posting recipes, so I'm posting two today!
These recipes are super easy and super fast.
BAKED TILAPIA
2 tilapia filets (or more if you choose)
seasoned salt
lemon pepper seasoning
fresh lemon
*Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place tilapia on a sheet of aluminum foil in a casserole dish. Squeeze the juice from half a lemon over the filets. Sprinkle with desired amount of lemon pepper and seasoned salt. Seal with foil. Bake for 25 min. or until flaky. This always turns out very juicy. I don't eat fish, but Brian loves this and says with this recipe he cannot tell the difference between the fresh tilapia and the frozen tilapia.
REBECCA'S HUSH PUPPIES
1 c. white cornmeal
1/4 c. self-rising flour
1 egg
1 large onion, chopped
2 Tbsp. sugar
enough buttermilk to make a stiff batter**
Combine ingredients. Drp by teaspoonfuls into a deep, medium hot oil until perfectly browned. Drain on a paper towl. Sprinkle lightly with salt. A small ice cream dipper works great for these.
**I never have buttermilk on hand, so what I do is make my own. Put 1 Tbsp. lemon juice (or white vinegar if you don't have the lemon juice) in a measuring cup. Fill the remaining cup to the 1 cup line with milk. Stir and let set 5 minutes. Now you can use this as your buttermilk. Remember, it will NOT take the whole cup.
