Wondering what to have for dinner tonight? Well tonight’s dinner is foil baked Mahi Mahi with a sweet glaze, homemade macaroni n cheese with sautéed veggies.

The mac n cheese I made actually wasn’t my true mac n cheese. I made noodles the other night for Cooper to have with his dinner and decided to use the remainder of them tonight. I simply added parmesan cheese, shredded American, Colby and sharp cheese. Simple and delicious.

Foil baked Mahi is one of the better ways to cook this fish as it can tend to dry out pretty easily if slightly over baked or under baked. Not the easiest to cook or shall I say I’m not the best fish baker. :)

Ingredients:

Mahi Foil Bake

• Mahi Mahi
• 1 Sliced onion
• 4 tbsp fresh chopped cilantro
• 4 tbsp butter
• Prickly pear marmalade (any jam or glaze will work)

Place thawed mahi on a piece of foil and layer with above ingredients.

Fold foil up to help hold juices in.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until no longer pink

Mac N’ Cheese

• 3 cups cooked Elbow Macaroni
• 2 cups shredded cheese blend
• 1 cup parmesan cheese
• 3 tbsps butter
• Salt and Pepper to taste

Cook Macaroni according to package instructions. Add butter and cheese and mix well. Add dash of salt and pepper to taste. Pretty simple for a side dish.

Sautéed Veggie Mix

• 1 cup chopped Brussels Sprouts
• 1 cup chopped red, orange, and yellow peppers
• 1 chopped onion
• ½ cup chopped chorizo
• Evoo
• Salt and Pepper to taste

In a fry pan sauté vegetables until crisp and too perfection. Overcooking is easy to do and also sucks all the nutrients out of them as well. No one enjoys soft and mushy vegetables.

When you begin to cook them remember to not over stir. Fry for 4 minutes on med-low heat, toss vegetables and fry another 4 minutes. This will help glaze vegetables with a slight crispy bite. Not to hard, not to soft.
