(modification of original recipe from Hello Healthy)

Serves 4

  • 1 pound boneless skinless cod fillets
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple, diced
  • 1 cup avocado, diced
  • ½ cup cucumber, diced
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (DIVIDED)
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt (DIVIDED)
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil (or tarragon)
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 8 cups fresh arugula, baby spinach or mixed greens
  • 1 tablespoon raspberry balsamic vinegar

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a small bowl, combine pineapple, avocado, cucumber, red onion, 1 tablespoon lime juice and ¼ teaspoon salt.  Mix until well incorporated.  Set salsa aside to allow flavors to combine while cod cooks.

Lightly spray a baking dish with non-stick spray.  Place cod in dish and pour the remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice evenly over cod fillets.  Sprinkle cod with basil (or tarragon), remaining ¼ teaspoon salt and pepper.  Bake until cod is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 15 to 20 minutes depending on thickness.

Divide greens between 4 plates.  Serve cod on top of greens with salsa and vinegar.
