What's a healthy side dish to serve with grilled fish?

Question

whats something healthy would go good with grilled lemon pepper fish? has to be semi quick&easy the rest of my family is having fries but since i'm on a diet i'm not gonna be eating them

Answer 1

What I love doing is making "mock" potatoes. Take steamed cauliflower and blend it in a blender until smooth. Use milk to make the mixture smooth, add powered chicken stock(I hate the cubes, they are a pain) to taste. You want to have it look like the consistency of mashed potatoes. If you want then really creamy add a teaspoon of non-fat/or low-fat cream cheese. You won't be disappointed. Plus now when they have potatoes...so can YOU! :0)

Side Dishes For Grilled Fish

Answer 3

Get to know quinoa. It's a nutrition-packed whole grain that's a great substitute for rice, and as easy to cook. Cook according to package directions, or add some boullion to flavor it; then toss with lemon juice and olive oil, and any pan juices from the fish, for preference. Yummy, healthy, low-calorie.

Oh yeah, and any steamed or roasted veggies would also be great, you can season them the same way as the fish.

Answer 4

I like to saute some sweet onion, mushrooms, snap peas, and whichever color bell peppers I happen to like or are on sale at the store, in a little olive oil with minced garlic. Throw in some salt & pepper to taste and viola...a colorful blend of healthy veggies with lots of different textures and flavors. Really easy, very yummy, and super good for you!

Answer 5

A green veggie sounds good, like Brussel sprouts, broccoli, asparagus, steamed. Also, brown rice, wild rice, or a baked potato. Ooooh, squash sounds good with wild rice, too. You can buy frozen squash in the freezer section.

Answer 6

Steamed Asparagus with citrus pepper sauce

Citrus Pepper Sauce--1 tsp fat free honey mustard, 1/2 tsp lemon juice, cracked pepper

Answer 7

How about some salad :]
Maybe some stir fried or steamed veggies?
Corn on the cob is good too.
And cole slaw will do the job.

Answer 8

instant brown rice, instead of all water use orange juice as half the liquid amount, steamed broccoli, with a little squeeze of lemon/lime juice-or-
make sweet potato fries in the oven!

Answer 9

Steamed broccoli with a teeny, tiny, itty bitty sprinking of parmesan is outstanding. Salad in a bag is nice, you can grab out a handful whenever you want it.

Answer 10

like both, fruits: berries, oatmeal, pears, peaches, dragonfruit, pomegranate.... Vegetables: CUCUMBERS, bok choy, green beans, broccoli,.... We guess the two are great.
