Intermittent Fasting Diet Plan Example

It's now been two weeks since I slipped on my icy steps and landed flat on my back with a broken arm.   Before that I'd been doing well with my yearly return to Phase One of the South Beach Diet, but I confess the broken arm did trigger a few days of total comfort eating.  Then I got over it and decided I really DID want to get back on track.  I've been even more grateful than usual to have Jake to help with recipes I've been trying out for A Month of Daily Phase One Recipes, but there are also times I have to cook for myself if I want to stick to Phase One.

(For Phase One Fridays I feature Phase One Recipes from the past that have been my personal favorites.)  This recipe for Baked White Fish with Onions, Peppers, Olives, and Feta is one I came up with in the very earliest days of my blog, and it's a favorite quick dinner that I've been making it for years. You can make this with any type of mild white fish, but I probably use Tilapia the most, and using a topping with finely chopped red onion, red bell pepper, green olives, and Feta adds a lot of flavor to the mild-flavored Tilapia.  If you're not  a Tilapia fan, use any any mild white fish such as halibut, orange roughy, cod, or sole.  There's a small amount of mayo spread over the fish to keep the topping on, and that also keeps the fish moist when it's baked at a high temperature.  It's important to start with room-temperature fish pieces, so the fish cooks quickly without the topping ingredients getting too done.  If green olives are a non-starter at your house, try it with capers instead, but please try this way of cooking fish if you like these flavors and I bet it will become a repeater at your house too!
