This simple baked one tray dish is simple to make it on a weeknight or a weekend. We love seafood and prepare it at least 3 times a week. Fishes like salmon, trout, mackerel, cod, shrimps (shellfish) is our favourites here at home. There is no better food than fish and vegetables, cause its healthy and easy to prepare. This dish prepared by my daughter (12 years ) with the help of me. Should say fish dishes are good for learning purposes for kids too. Not too many ingredients and quick cooking time.
Pesto on the other hand is a hands on experience, replacing some ingredients from the original recipe. Due to allergy and intolerance reasons, choose to avoid nuts and cheese. Yet combining these fresh herbs with olive oil is yummy and nutritious.
I prefer using mostly organic food products and home grown herbs. Nothing can beat natural food products.
