Fish & Chips

Food Category: G-Rated, Bum Lovin'
Difficulty: Easy

This was yet another super exciting meal our the Haus tonight!

The Protein:

Garlic & Herb Crunchy Fish Fillets by Gordon's, straight out of the box & cooked in the toaster oven.

The Veggie:

Frozen petite green peas that were nuked, sprayed with I Can't Believe it's Not Butter & sprinkled with salt

The Carb:

Oven Baked Potato Chips

  • preheat oven & baking sheet to 450F
  • peel & thinly slice potatoes
  • toss with olive oil, salt &/or pommes frites seasoning
  • line hot baking pan with parchment paper
  • place potatoes on hot pan in a single layer
  • baked for 10-15 minutes, turning frequently, until crisp & golden brown

The potatoes cook better if they are in a single layer, but I had more potatoes & just piled them up on the pan. If you eat single servings, this meal is about 500 calories. Load up on raw veggies if you need more volume.

Leftover potential: Peas can be frozen in the freezer soup container. Should you have leftover fish, it can be reheated in the toaster oven to make fish sandwiches later. Potatoes can be added to soups, but not frozen first. They can also be tossed into omlettes or breakfast burritos.
