So, here I am tackling a resolution! Wooheee!
I like to eat fish... When I go out to eat at a nice restaurant, I tend to order fish. There is just something about a fresh, perfectly cooked fish dish that gets me excited. It is light and delicious, flakey, buttery, crispy, mmmm, mmmm, mmmmm PLUS it has omega-3s.... but now to get back on track - I recently have been buying these frozen cod fillets from Trader Joes and have been making this baked cod dish fairly frequently. It is an easy recipe to follow, does not take long to prepare, and comes out super yummy. My 16 month old enjoys it.

4. Squeeze half of your lemon over the fish fillets and put to the side.
5. Melt 2 Tablespoons of Butter |
6. Crush your crackers, sometimes I put them in a ziplock and crush, but sometimes I use my (clean) bare hands (as pictured). |
My daughter loves these crackers. |
7. Add in breadcrumbs. |
8. Now the Parmesan. |
9. Next stir in the melted butter. |
10. The remaining 1 tablespoon of butter goes in a baking dish and into the preheated over for 3 minutes to melt. |
11. Chop your parsley in the meantime.
12. Then coat both sides of your fish in the melted butter in the baking dish and add half of your parsley.
13. Bake your cod in the preheated oven for ten minutes and remove. |

Yummy. Looks so good! I'll have to make it!
