The Challenge...

Welcome to our blog! We are a bio-mom (Stephanie) and step-mom (Trisha) who have put our differences aside and are going to join forces and lose the weight we have been struggling with for some time. We have a competitive streak between us, and we are going to turn it around to positive energy and benefit ourselves and our family.



We will be having fun weekly challenges to help keep us motivated as well as weekly weigh ins. The weigh in will be by percentage. (Loss divided by weight before loss = percentage)



We will blog about our experiences, our losses and our gains.

Crusted Tilapia

Fish is a favorite at our house.  I try to come up with interesting ways to cook it and this crusted way seems to be a favorite. 

4 oz. fillets of tilapia (prepackaged cut already :) )
3 sheets of phyllo dough
fresh dill (or dry)
diced garlic
lemon pepper (or sometimes I just squeeze some lemon on)

you take your 3 sheets of dough and light spray some olive oil cooking spray on each sheet as you layer them.  Cut the sheets in half and place one fillet on each half.  Sprinkle your seasoning on and fold the fish with the sheets and lay seam side down on a sprayed cookie sheet.  Spray a little more spray on top, it helps make the crunch!  Just light sprays, though!  And feel free to put more dill on top!

Bake in the oven at 375 until golden brown! 

These little crispy pockets of goodness are heaven!!!  And they taste great the next day cold for lunch! 

I don't know if there is an actual recipe for this, because I just did this on my own one day. :)

Total calories per 4 oz fillet: 200
