My husband is not very fond of fish especially tilapia but he likes this one because it is already seasoned and you don't need to use oil to cook it in a skillet. The tilapia is so flaky and fresh tasting. I had mine with rice and pineapple and orange salsa with sriracha sauce yum! My kids and husband had theirs with sour krout (weird combination eh, but what4ver works right?)

So here's the verdict of the two fish fillets above. We love the potato crusted fish fillets. We ate it with my baked potatoes with broccoli and cheese and wild rice.

My husband and son tied the fish sandwich fillets yesterday. They said it was okay but still preferred the potato crusted one. I made my husband a sandwich with lettuce, tomatoes, and tartar sauce.

My son ate his with wild rice, vegetable medley, and a slice of tomato. He also preferred the potato crusted one o over this.

My daughter and I had the grilled tilapia yesterday for dinner.

The seasoning came off after I baked it. I was hoping that the grilled mark will be there but since the seasoning got melted, it was nothing like a grilled tilapia although it still tasted good, the appearance isn't what I expected it too. So our verdict is, we preferred the skillet crisp tilapia over the grilled one.

This all does look tasty. Happy New Year. Catherine
I really need to start eating healthier, so I'm trying out some nutrition shakes for breakfast... What is your opinion on those? Will I really stay healthy drinking those, and will I lose the weight I need to? Is there a better alternative?
I LOVE Gortons! During lent I buy a ton of this stuff because my husband isn't Catholic , but I was raised feeling guilty for eating meat on Fridays. Gortons has made my life during lent SO much easier! I don't have to cook two full meals!
Those products look really tasty. Reminds me of the gourmet product of Fisher Farms. I wish they also have the shrimp scampi here. :)
never tried the product but i've heard great reviews about how good they are.
I love coupons :) lately I avoid eating process food but this look delicious.
That is so awesome mommy. it has all the tools that you need too to start eating healthy the quick and easy way, too. :) I haven't really tried this product before, but I might want to check it out next time we are at the store. Thanks for sharing!
Looks very yummy! I wish I have access to those type of meals that I can easily prepare but we don't have that brand here in Dubai. :) Kudos again sis! You're doing an excellent job!
Wow! That is so amazing, Ate Rose! :) I wish coupons are widely used here in PI.
Those look good. We love tilapia and pasta around here. Will check on them.
I always love freebies and enjoying every munch to ensure that the reviews I shared with the product is indeed worth to share.
It is a great idea to have pre-made food items like these on hand to serve the family when no one feels like doing everything from scratch.
Great instant food! I wish there were more options like that here. For someone like me who is always rushing to work and rushing back home to cook and clean, those yummy packs would be a blessing! I would definitely love to try the shrimp scampi. :)
Ako rin need to be healthier this year. That grilled tilapia sounds tempting.
Like you, I'm also striving to live and eat healthy this 2015. Grilled and baked foods are a good start, and you are lucky to receive products that can help you achieve this goal.
My daughter loves fish sticks. I will check this brand our in the grocery.
