Working Girl: Arugula Salad + Curry Tilapia

I've mentioned before that I've been super busy lately, yet I still try my hardest to eat healthy. It's one of the important things to me, especially as I find I barely have time to read blogs with all of my reading for assignments. This recipe is a simple one that is super quick and healthy: arugula salad and curry tilapia.

This recipe is simply made up of:

tilapia with curry powder, a little cumin powder, salt, + cracked pepper
arugula salad with croutons, toasted pistachios, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, + cracked pepper

I seasoned the tilapia then baked it in the oven at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes, flipping it halfway through. This recipe works with both fresh and frozen tilapia, as long as the frozen tilapia is thawed. The salad was an easy addition to mix up while the tilapia baked in the oven. It's perfect for any busy weeknight, and even for a quick lunch at home on a weekend in between errands.

This week marks the end of a huge building-wide event that we've been working on, and the start of wedding season. We have lots of weddings from now until May. I haven't been feeling the greatest lately, but I feel myself progressively getting better, just in time for wedding season.

Adieu, Yelle

This looks so good! It really is wedding season! Everyone around me is getting hitched or engaged left and right. Such an exciting time :)

Drooling. I love curry, and I love fish, and I love a good salad. This is the trifecta.

I make wedding jewelry, and while my busiest time is always April-August, I've been getting a lot of early orders for bridesmaid gifts. But maybe earlier weddings are the thing now!

Seriously, my mouth is watering...is it okay to have fish for breakfast? hahaha

That arugula salad sounds great. Not a huge tilapia fan, but I could easily swap in a piece of tuna and use sesame instead! My eating habits are so poor, I need to fix that.

Your busy weeknight dinner looks much better than mine, which lately has been frozen dinners from Trader Joes. :/

just bought one fresh whole red tilapia for dinner today. they look so pretty raw while loses its colour (the red skin) when cooked.

nevermind that they tasted delicious with just salt and pepper anyhow!

i'm inspired to make some salad now.
