Sometimes the simplest meals are the ones that hit the spot! Choose your favorite mild white fish, tilapia, cod, barramundi, or flounder, and cook it just the way you love it. Bake it, air-fry it, pan-sear it, and season it with your favorite herbs and spices. Then add a generous helping of roasted cruciferous veggies on the side, think broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, or cabbage. It’s an easy, nourishing plate packed with protein and veggie goodness that proves healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated! This recipe idea is from the Wizzy Simple Menu ~ Week 1 from Executive Coach Kris Honeycutt and is part of the Trim Healthy Exclusive Collection.

Notes & Ideas on the Roasted Cruciferous Vegetables ~ Page 227 of the Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook:
"This method works for so many veggies, but just to name a few: asparagus , broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage steaks (thick wedges of cabbage) , zucchini and yellow squash, radishes (cut the bigger ones in halves), mushrooms , cauliflower, eggplant (cut into rounds) , whole okra pods… mmmm, one of our favorites (bake until very crispy), turnips (cut them small – unlike radishes which lose their bite when cooked, turnips keep a peppery bite that some people love and others don’t), onions (better used in smaller amounts to enhance flavor of other veggies rather than roasting a whole onion for one serving)."
