Broiled Tilapia Parmesan

What a week it has been… the cold weather is back, cars not starting, snow and wind. January seems like it may never come to an end, but then I guess there is just one week left to the month. Then we will have one more month of winter behind us. Come on spring, please hurry.

Dinner time is always a lot of rushing around of late. Mike and I both seem to be working later, so we are always in a hurry to get dinner on the table. That is one of the reasons I love fish, it doesn’t take long to prepare and it’s quite versatile.

I found a recipe for this Tilapia with some great seasonings and Parmesan cheese and knew that it had to be something I had to. This recipe is quick and delicious.
