There was no cast net and the boy remembered when they had sold it. But they went through this fiction every day. There was no pot of yellow rice and fish and the boy knew this too.

👩🏻🍳 Tamara Talks – What is a Pescatarian?
I could be a pescatarian (one who does not eat meat but does eat fish and seafood). So many of my favorite foods come out of the water – oysters, shrimp, scallops, fish. Emphasis on FISH.
When I started putting together this post, I expected some amazing recipes, but I was totally overwhelmed by the quality and variety of the contributions I received. I’m guessing that means there are a lot of fish-lovers out there!
In order to narrow this list to a manageable number, I elected to stay primarily with fish this time; I will bring you a similar collection of shellfish recipes in the near future. 😀
With the change of the seasons, many home cooks tend to rely on meat and poultry for cool-weather fare. I live 45 miles from the Gulf of Mexico (as the crow flies), and I tend to be looking for interesting fish recipes year ’round. My focus with this “roundup” is on dishes that will make your mouth-water when the days are getting shorter… and cooler. Fish soups, stews, and gravies with hearty bases. I hope you’ll find yourself drooling making a few…
