Almond crusted tilapia. This dijon almond crusted tilapia is pan-fried, ready in 10 minutes and a healthy, grain free dinner.

And I kid you not when I say one of the pros of this whole thing has been this recipe. Or more pointedly, finally finding a way to enjoy tilapia. As far as I’m concerned that’s just as much of a pro as having no bloating, clear skin and losing a few inches around my hips & waist. Let’s face it, tilapia is just one boring ass fish. For some reason though, I caved last week and bought a single filet. Somehow mustard, almonds and paprika ended up on the counter and the rest is history. So transformative I made it again 3 days later.

I was searching for recipes online and in my cookbooks and magazines, but nothing seemed quite right and I really wanted something that was my own. Why, you ask? I don’t know, sometimes I just get an idea in my head and it then becomes a personal challenge (or obsession), which is exactly what happened here.

Chicken Pot Pie Crumble - My Favorite Pot Pie. You are looking at a must try comfort food meal. I was never a fan of chicken pot pie until a friend so kindly brought me this dish after I had my baby a few years ago. I'm fully in love with it!

I have another lemon pasta recipe on this site, and it’s always been a summertime favorite of mine.
If you haven’t traveled to the land of mixing lemon and pasta, it can seem a little foreign at first. But the fact is, it’s a dreamy and delicious pairing that knocks my socks off every time. I added some grilled chicken to the top of this pasta dish at the end…but the grilled chicken is really secondary. It’s the pasta here—a creamy concoction of lemon, cream, and basil—that deserves top billing.
