Oven Baked Blackened Tilapia

So as I had my first Figure Competition this past weekend, I wanted to commit to another this weekend, but I broke down and caved into those crazy food temptations!! I let my emotions get the best of me, but I feel I am only FAILING FORWARD!! This is still just the beginning of an amazing journey I have with many more shows to come!! I know I did it once, I can do it again! What is crazy is my temptations I gave into did NOT taste remotely close to what my expectations were! How in the world can your taste buds change that much?!?! Its a good thing, so now that I finished my 6th bowl of cinnamon toast crunch today (yes I said 6), lol Im moving forward and doing something with all this tilapia sitting in my fridge haha!

Im excited to get back to my healthy routine and 1 off meal a week! I still haven’t had my Chik Fi La or pizza, but Ill be eating those in the next few weeks with my off meals lol! 
So here we go… I am a spicy kinda girl, so Blackened tilapia is right up my ally!! I was making a meal plan for a friend of a friend who is in one of our challenge groups and she does not eat meat, so I realized I hardly have any recipes for those who do not eat meat!! So glad I took notice to this and can help those who need healthy recipes but not meat eaters!! 🙂

Line a sheet pan with 2 Tbsp EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)

Take Tilapia filets and make sure they are dry.  Brush the filets with EVOO

Rub spices over Filets and set on foil covered in EVOO

Cook filets until brown and flaky (approximately 10-15 minutes)
Let cool before eating & ENJOY!

This recipe is one I will use for prepping for my figure competitions.  When I made this recipe, I also made it for a challenger who will be using 21 DAY FIX and T25 so this will work for both meal plans!
