So I don't usually like to brag, but sometimes I do a little bit.... I just made the most incredible dinner tonight. The kids ate every bite, including Jane, and Matt couldn't stop groaning.....it got kind of awkward there for a minute. Anyway, what makes this recipe delicious is the plethera of lime, cilantro, avacado and garlic. Best four ingredients out there. Hands down. If you like them, you will like this. Try it!

First of all, I think this is a great idea and I hope everyone will post lots of their favorite recipes.  I feel like I call for recipes all the time, especially mom, so this is a good way to share and keep them organized in one place too, so thanks Rachel! I'm making this fish tonight, and it's really yummy so I thought I would post the recipe for you guys to try.  I love, love, fried fish and it's really tempting to order it all the time with all the great seafood we have out here in MA, but it's not the healthiest choice.  I found this recipe in a recent Weight Watchers magazine and decided to try it, as it claims is is just like the "reel" deal, and I have to say, it is about as close as you can get.
