OMG this is WONDERFUL! I added a lil bit of cornstarch to the coconut sauce to make it thicker , because when you add the spinach it is too thin! i am thinking of making it with some chicken or shrimp SOOON! -
I liked the flavor of the sauce on the fish. I thought the sauce was a little thin. Will make again. -
This was really good. We love tilapia so I am always looking for new ways to prepare it. Thanks for posting Ellie.

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
