re’s a delicious way to serve up white fish – with lots of spice and a sprinkle of pretty garnish!
I love all of the flavor in this ultra-healthy dish. White fish can be bland or even unpleasant tasting if not properly dressed, but you won’t have to worry about flavor with this incredible spice blend. Serve over quinoa, rice or cauliflower rice for a tasty, satisfying, fitness dinner!
