BAKED FISH WITH SPINACH AND TOMATOES
This came into my inbox today from About.com, and I just had to share it. It looks like an easy and healthy weeknight dinner. They recommend mopping up the juices with some whole grain bread. I think this might be even better with some spices sprinkled on top along with the cheese, maybe basil and oregano.
