    Great recipes! Are you planning on any tilapia recipes? I love tilapia because it is very versatile and soaks up marinades very well. Not to mention it is very nutritious.

  17. Shawn Dietzer

    My favorite is the PARMESAN CRUSTED TILAPIA. I love tilapia because it is so versatile and cheap. Tilapia soaks up whatever marinade or seasoning you want to put on it and Parmesan tastes great on Tilapia. Tasty recipe!
