  1. Super--- fast. easy and good salt and pepper and herbs do help. I even had to use leftover salsa for the tomatoes with no problem, Feta adds a creamy note and I sprinked it on the individual served portions with homestyle red mashed potatoes as a side
     
  2. I made the sauce for this, tasted it before slipping the fish in and gave it a good grinding of salt and pepper and a couple of tablepoons of a mix of fresh parsley and basil. All of this and a squeeze of lemon juice made for a delicious and simple dinner thank you.
     
  3. Also reviewed for ZWT5 Zingo - Cooks w/Dirty Faces team. I thought this was a nice dish as well, although I added some herbs to the sauce, maybe was just my tinned tomatoes but I felt like it needed just a little something. I had far too much sauce for the amount of fish too - so I wish I had taken morgainegeiser's advice and drained the toms first. Or, I should have reserved half of the sauce and used it for something else the next day - even better! Love the tomato/feta combo and the lemon zest. My only sub was sole instead of cod - just what I had, sole is probably not the best choice. Thanks!
     
  4. These were quite simple to prepare and cook. They had a nice flavor, I used a white fish and regular feta cheese. They had a lot of sauce from the tomatoes, next time I will drain the tomatoes. Made for the ZWT5
     
  5. *Reviewed during ZWT5 for Zingo with the Chow Hounds Team* THis was a really tasty and easy fish dinner to prepare. I used a red snapper fillets and full fat feta cheese. I added in some pepper as well with the tomatoes. Next time I'll add in some fresh basil or parsley too. Photo also being posted

<p><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j184/cjmcqb/Family/IMG_0556-1-1-2-2.jpg alt=width=58 height=116 /><br />I have been married to the most wonderful man for 34 years. He is my best friend and the love of my life, my soulmate, and everyday he makes me smile!&nbsp; We have two wonderful children, both adults, and both the loves of our lives.&nbsp; We are so proud of them!<br /><br />I want to say <strong>THANK YOU</strong>&nbsp; <img title=Laughing src=/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-laughing.gif border=0 alt=Laughing />&nbsp; to all of you who try my recipes. I may not always get back with a Thank you in writing but I want you to know I do thank you very much. I appreciate any and all comments, it can only help me learn and become a better chef. <br /><br />I love to travel and see anything and everything. When summer comes, I am off to see. DH and I traveled across country several times and our children are seasoned travelers as well. Road Trip are 2 of my favorite words. The kids and I have done a few trips as well down the eastern seaboard and there are plans for more. Both DD and DS are gypsies as well and think nothing of taking a road trip to visit home or each other. LOVE IT <br /><br />I live in Western New York and love it here, snow and all. I am a special education teacher and enjoy my career. The sense of wonder and gratification comes daily. My favorite pastime is spending time with my family! I also love to read, listen to music and watch good movies. We have Friday night pizza night here, which means I do not cook! I love Friday's. I started this custom when my children were small and we would cuddle on the floor and play games together and eat pizza. (Highly recommended for all moms out there, dads too.) I LOVE THAT! <br /><br />My favorite cookbook has changed since I came to Zaar, it is now the Zaarworld cookbook. I can get everything I need here and then some, to cook up meals for family and friends. One passion of mine is to cook homestyle meals for family and friends, holiday dinners, and baking bread. <br />My pet peeve is rudeness. INTOLERABLE! <br /><br />Some of the Contests and Swaps I have participated in and thoroughly enjoyed! <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/final2_1.jpg
