Stir-Fried Fish with Greens

Here is a fantastic healthy Chinese recipe. I know it’s a little odd to think of fish in a stir-fry but with a very mild white fish, it can easily be interchangeable with chicken breast. I’m not even sure my son Solomon realized it wasn’t chicken. Scramble recipe tester Bobbi Woods said, “My whole family loved it. I used cod for the white fish, probably because it is a bit thicker. It still broke up quite a bit but really had a great flavor. The entire dish was eaten and there were no leftovers!!” Serve it with brown or white rice and seedless grapes. Prep + Cook Time: 20 minutes Makes 4 servings, about 1 1/2 cups [...]

This version, also inspired by a recipe from http://eatingwelllivingthin.wordpress.com/, is mild enough for picky eaters but interesting enough for adventurous eaters. If time allows, cook the quinoa up to a day in advance and refrigerate it, because it will be easier to work with when cool. Serve them with a green salad with avocado, walnuts and Parmesan cheese.
