This "shortcut gourmet" recipe is my go-to meal on busy days! It comes together quickly, and I always have the ingredients in the house. My mom came up with it years ago, and now my family enjoys it as well. The result looks like you spent hours in the kitchen instead of only 20 minutes, and the combination of flavors is delicious.
The weather was beautiful this afternoon in West Michigan! The kids were playing outside with their dad, so I had a quiet house. I lost track of time (OK, I'll admit, I wasn't busy cleaning or folding laundry, I was checking out some different food blogs!), and when our five-year-old came in complaining he was hungry, I realized it was 5:29PM.
The race was on! Almond Tilapia Fillets, Oven-Roasted Asparagus, and Seasoned Rice were on the menu for tonight, but besides having the tilapia thawed, nothing was prepped yet.
