I love cooking based on theory and trying out new things, especially when based off inspiration from other recipes. I've been addicted to the most recent cookbook in my collection, The Oh She Glows Cookbook by Angela Lidden (if you love yummy, healthy vegan food - or even if you aren't vegan - you MUST pick this book up!!!). I had just finished making a soup from this book and it was time to make dinner. Taste buds salivating from the smells of chilli powder and cayenne pepper, I whipped up this concoction using ingredients I already had in my kitchen. Let's just say both mine and my boyfriend's tastebuds (and bellies) have been so satisfied with this recipe, I had to make it a second time this week, we were craving it so much. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do :)

This meal was inspired by a recipe I found online when I was looking for ideas for searing fish. You can use this recipe in a corn tortilla and have tacos in lieu of quinoa and shred the tilapia after it’s made.

A half pound chicken leg mixed with vegetables and nuts makes six chicken dinner portions when you use Lizano style salsa, you taste the chicken in every bite in this recipe. Great weekday meal.
