Zesty Italian Tilapia and Riced Cauliflower Couscous
I have to confess… I hate fish. There I said it. HOWEVER, this tilapia is the only fish I will eat outside of a fish stick. This is one of my husband’s favorite tilapia recipes of all times, and since it’s actually quite tasty, I don’t mind. So easy and so amazing! Thank you for watching!
