One of our favorite home-cooked meals.
Cod Rice Pouch!
The main ingredient is apparently cod.
But I like to put a lot of vegetables in the pouch as well.
Here is a picture right before the pouch was closed and put in the oven.
You can enjoy this dish simply as it is, or a splash of lemon juice, or any sauce of your choice.
This time I served it with sweet and spicy chili soy sauce.
You can certainly make chili sauce from scratch, but it’s easier when you use Trader Joe’s Hot & Sweet Chili Jam.
This is super easy to make, yet, it looks gorgeous.
Another great thing about this dish is everything (protein, carbs, and veggies) you want for your meal is all in the pouch.
So no need to prepare side dishes separately.
