Serving Size:
1/2 Cup
Ingredients
2 pounds fish fillets (try cod, tilapia, snapper or others)
1⁄4 teaspoon each salt and pepper
2 cups shredded cabbage or lettuce
2 cups chopped vegetables (try tomatoes, cucumber, carrots, corn, green onions, celery, avocado)
1⁄2 cup low-fat ranch dressing
1⁄2 cup salsa
Directions
- Season fish with salt and pepper. Cook by your favorite method until it appears opaque and flakes apart easily (see Notes).

- Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours.
Notes
To cook fish:
- In a Skillet – Spray or lightly oil a skillet. Add seasoned fish and cook over medium heat (300 degrees in an electric skillet) until the flesh starts to appear white. Turn fish over and cook until it flakes easily.
- In the Oven – Put seasoned fish in a baking pan and cover with foil. Bake in a 350-degree oven until fish flakes.
- Under a Broiler – Place seasoned fish on a broiler pan. Broil several inches from the heat until the fish is opaque throughout and flakes easily.
To make tacos instead of salad:
- Warm tortillas. Layer cabbage or lettuce, vegetables of your choice, and fish on the tortilla. Drizzle with ranch dressing and salsa. Fold in half.
