I love fish, lots of people do. There's no reason to wait till Friday to enjoy a quick fish dish. I come from a Catholic family, seems like we only had fish on Fridays. You can come home from work and bake fillets in 15 minutes, deep fry in 10 minutes. Fish is very healthy and there are so many fish dishes you can try, you'll never get bored!! I wouldn't mind having a nice fish dish right now...with salad, rice and spinach. I also love salmon fillets with dill sauce. Maybe you're not a fish lover like me, throw something nice on the grill. Visit Rec.Food.Recipes archive of marinades and sauces. Also please visit the Pasta Recipe site and pick out something nice like Penne pasta with Tomato Cream Sauce.

Here is a list of marinating times compliments of America Online's Electric Gourmet Guide.
---------------------
Delicate seafood (such as flounder or scallops): 15 minutes
Stronger seafood (such as tuna, shrimp, salmon): 30 minutes
Skinless, boneless chicken breasts or turkey cutlets: up to 3 hours
Skin-on chicken parts: 3 to 24 hours
Whole chickens or turkey breast: 4 to 24 hours
Beef steaks, pork or lamb chops: 3 to 24 hours
Beef or pork roast, boneless leg of lamb: 3 to 24 hours

I found an awesome web site. If you don't find something here that whets your appetite, you are from another planet. Epicurious Food for people who eat. I found a recipe there for bell pepper, tomato, tuna and egg salad. All of a sudden, i know what's for dinner monday night!! Isn't that wonderful? The best thing about this site...other than the awesome recipes is the fact that you can tailor your recipe search at this site
