*** A WORD FROM THE KITCHEN ***
It's a good idea to slip fish into your diet every week
but many people who love fish are afraid of preparing it.
Well, this EASY LEMONy FISH recipe can be your life-saver

incorporates a unique product called imitation butter spray
that's pretty available most everywhere these days (like
the "I can't believe it's not butter" brand) for those of
you who are watching your waistline.

FISH COOKING TIP:
Never overcook. Cooking fish at too high a temperature
or for too long a time can toughen the fish and destroy
natural moisture and flavor. Overcooking is the most
common mistake in fish and seafood cookery. Fish loses
its translucent appearance and becomes opaque when
thoroughly cooked. Pierce the fish at the thickest point.
If it flakes easily and the flesh falls from the bones,
you know it is done.
