Hola! It's been a while; dinners all summer have been super fresh & simple garden goods & grilled stuff. We wanted fish tonight, for sure. Had beautiful locally grown zephyr squash and ripe tomatoes & eggplant on their vines in the backyard. Taking inspiration from one of my Dad's favorite fish dishes, I threw together a kind of Plaki (a Greek dish consisting of baked fish/vegetables), and switched it up from the usual mirepoix-ish ingredients and used what I had on hand!
Whitefish Plaki with Eggplant, Squash and Tomato
Prep & cook time: 45 min
Nutrition Infos: N/A too lazy to add today, but for sure diet friendly!
