I love serving fish for dinner…it’s healthy, full of protein, and usually pretty low in Weight Watchers Points. Also, the fact that it cooks super fast makes it ideal for those busy weeknights. Sometimes, I get fancy with fish recipes, and other times I just like to keep it simple.

This Spiced Oven Roasted Cod Recipe is one of the simple ones – minimal prep work, minimal ingredients, and the end result is lovely and delicious. The bold spice blend gives the mild cod a perfect kick of flavor! Pair this with some roasted vegetables, and a rice dish or low calorie soup for a complete meal. Enjoy!

    I’ve all my recipes to the new site…but for the life of me I do not know how to add recipes that I like from the Laaloosh website. This change for me has not been an easy one…hopefully I’m no the only one complaining…J

    • Any Cajun seasoning will work well!! Like Tony’s (not sure if you guys have that) but look for anything that says Cajun seasoning and it’ll be just as good (if not better, it’s a bit spicier)
