If you follow my blog or my Instagram, you certainly know that I am all about delicious foods that can be made with minimal ingredients. This Crusted Sole with Thyme recipe is no exception! Sole fillets are a staple protein option in my freezer because they can be thawed and ready in under 15 minutes for dinner. If you’d prefer to make salmon, check out this recipe for Garlic Herb Salmon with Sunflower Seeds. It only takes 20 minutes!

This recipe was featured in a previous blog post of mine, 15 Fun & Unique Meal Themes! It includes a Mexican Fiesta, a Build-Your-Own-Pizza night and Breakfast for Dinner.

Benefits of Meal Themes:

  • They help you narrow down possibilities of what to cook (for example –taco night).
  • They allow family involvement in decision making.
  • Themes add the opportunity to explore new foods and familiar favourites.
  • They lower the pressure to come up with unique dinner ideas every night.
  • Themes help designate days of the week (i.e., Meatless Monday, Easy Meal Friday) which saves you from planning themes daily or weekly.
