I haven't made this recipe yet but am planning on making a few changes due to some situations in my life. I have A LOT of olive dip (green olives blended with cream cheese and garlic powder) and wanted to use it in a recipe. We'll see how it turns out. I'm planning on using fresh spinach also. Should be interesting!

SERVES 4 , 4 filets (change servings and units)

Ingredients

16 ounces tilapia fillets (or other fish)
4 ounces fat free cream cheese
1/2 (8 ounce) can spinach
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 pinch salt
1/2 crushed garlic clove
4 Ritz crackers

Directions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F
2
Blend the cream cheese and spinach in a large bowl.
3
Add the garlic, nutmeg, and salt
4
Spray a baking dish with non-stick spray
5
Arrange the fillets on the pan and slice a slit down the fish.
6
Spoon the cream cheese mixture onto the fish, flattening it so that it seeps in the slit (this isnt' TRUE stuffed fish -- a lot will just be spooned over the top)
7
Sprinkle Ritz or bread crumbs over fish
8
Bake for 8 minutes until fish flakes with a fork.

*I didn't use all of the cream cheese mixture, so I recommend saving the left over and using it as a spinach dip! My husband loves it on wheat thins or chips! The recipe will actually be closer to 135 calories since you won't use all the mixture most likely.
