I think I'm going to try this tonight.


I will try it with Haddock, but it should taste alright. Some of the people who tried this suggested baking it in tinfoil, then laying the fish over a bed of Cous Cous or Rice and pouring the juices of the fish over top. It would be nice with a side of mixed garden beans. They also said they cooked their fish at 400 degrees for 10-15 min. Some chose to put the lemon on after, as the acids can start to cook the fish and heat changes the taste of the lemon.

What are you making for dinner tonight?

HA! I am going to throw frozen hamburger into a pan with some onions and celery and spices (not msg:P)
And make sweet potato fries- which means the only thing I have to do is cut the potatoes and pour oil on them. :D
Not one of my most inspired dishes...

BUT the kids LOVE it and eat it WITHOUT COMPLAINING!!!

We had curried chiken sauce slow cooked on rice. Not the best invention I've come up with. Not enough spices. Next time I'll put more. I like this idea.
