TILAPIA WITH CORN SALSA
4 tilapia fillets (6 oz each)
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can whole kernel corn, drained
3/4 cup Italian salad dressing
2 Tbsp chopped green onion
2 Tbsp(I prefer more=) chopped red sweet pepper
Drizzle both sides of fillets with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Broil 4-6 inches from heat for 5-7 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Serve with fish.
On an unrelated note, I was struck all over again last night with an overwhelming love of / thankfulness for music. What it does for me deep in my soul is something I can't try to explain. As I cleaned up from dinner I put on one of my very favorite Pandora stations and wow did it make me happy. Great song after great song and I couldn't help but grab my littlest boy and twirl around and around.
To those of you who have music deep in your soul, you get it.
I am very thankful for music.
We spent the day yesterday with dear, dear friends whom we don't see nearly as often as we'd like but they still remain some of our best buddies. 5 years ago now Darla said to me "you need to meet Jack and Jill" and I said "really???", thinking that I had just moved home from Japan and declared that I really didn't need any new friends.
Foolish me and thank you Jesus!!
These years have passed and the two babies between us have turned into 8 (soon to be 9) and life is crazy but we've sure stuck together.
And our kids love each other and that's a joy to see.
I am very thankful for Jill.
