Well, the last couple of days. Most of them are the Kitchen Nightmares (US) because that's what Netflix has.

So, tonight, in a spate of creativity, I made food!

Here is what I did:

Take five defrosted tilapia fillets. Put them on small sheets of aluminum foil. Rub on olive oil, add a splash (a tiny one, I used a little too much) of lemon juice. Take an apple(s) (I have granny smith's) and slice it into cubes. Put the cubes on the tilapia. I also added kale. Add spices to taste (tonight was garlic/red pepper flakes with the tiniest amount of salt). Wrap in the foil packets and put in the oven at 400*F.

I made mashed potatoes to go with it. It was good.

Some notes:

- I think I'm going to try pears/stronger apple/pineapple next time with this. The Granny Smith's just didn't cut it. Maybe even oranges! The citrus would probably be very nice with it.
- No more red pepper flakes. Even a couple seem to be too much for my mouth. Sigh.
- It probably needs about 2 more minutes in the oven.

But, it was good. And healthy! And that's a goal this year: to cook a bit differently and healthier.
