Baking with Parchment- and a giveaway
Thanks to the Foodbuzz tastemaker program I got to sample some of Mrs. Paul's and Van de Kamp's ParchmentBake! My post is a bit delayed due to availability, it's so new I couldn't find it at first! Thankfully it showed up in the stores this past weekend and John and I had the roasted garlic talapia variety last night.
The fish cooked perfectly in the parchment. It's super easy to make, place the parchment pouch on a baking sheet and bake for 22-24 minutes. That's it, you're done, no mess left on the pan, no guess work! The best part is one fillet packs 13 grams of protein, only 80 calories, and .5 grams of fat. The only downside is each one has 15% of your sodium for the day, not horrible when you think how much most frozen entrees pack.
We made our meal super simple by serving the fish with its sauce over a big green salad. It was a perfect light meal for a spring evening. I liked the flavor of the roasted garlic sauce but the consistency was a little on the thick side for me. Taste and texture wise the fish was perfect. I would definitely get this again for a quick weeknight meal option, and no I'm not just saying that since I got to try these for free.
Want to try the filets for yourself? I have two more coupons that I want to share with you readers! That means 2 people get to win! To enter just tell me what you'd serve your fish with? Would you do a salad like me? Or maybe over some rice? Pasta? Asparagus?

I love fish but I dont make it often enough. This sounds terrific! I would serve it with a salad and roasted cauliflower :).
I've always been partial to fish with a nice rice pilaf :-)
some wild rice would be divine!
bit of warm brown rice and cool salad, best of both worlds!
