I am not allowed to cook chicken this week so I am experimenting with fish and other types of meat. Yesterday we enjoyed lamb and today it was tilapia. This was my first time cooking tilapia in the crockpot and it really did came out delicious. Cooking it in the tomatoes makes it flavorful and gives you a great broth for the rice. I really did not no what kind of fish to use so I must confess I went with what was the most economical. Fish is very expensive and tilapia is usually one of the most reasonably priced fish at the supermarket. It was even on sale at Shoprite today for $4.99 a pound (it is usually $5.99) so I happy to save even more. As many of you know trying to eat candida diet and allergy friendly on a tight budget can be a daunting task but today I feel like I won. I hope that you enjoy the recipe. Everyone seemed to like it in my house, kids included. Have a great night!
