{ Recipe } Tilapia with Arugula & Tomatoes

We enjoy good food around here. Good food that's simple to make and delicious is even better! The last recipe I posted, creme brulee french toast, was a big hit. You don't need to tell your guests how simple these foods are to make either. We can keep it as our little secret.

It's been a while since I made this tilapia with arugula and tomatoes, but I think it's about time I make this for dinner again. Talk about a simple meal that has great flavor and makes for happy tummies. The only thing I'll add to this next time is a side of potatoes.
