Eating fish at least twice a week can help reduce the risk of heart disease. Perk up the flavor of broiled snapper with a Dijon mustard coating and fresh lemon, and serve it over spinach and tomatoes for an easy one-dish meal. Round out the menu with whole-grain rolls or steamed brown rice. Serve with a healthy salad and a small glass of dry white wine.

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons country-style Dijon mustard
• 3 tablespoons reduced-fat Italian dressing
• 4 (6-ounce) red snapper fillets
• cooking spray
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1 (10-ounce) package fresh spinach (about 10 cups)
• 1 cup chopped red or yellow tomato
• 4 lemon wedges

Instructions

1. Preheat broiler.

2. Combine mustard and dressing, stirring with a whisk.

3. Arrange fish, skin side down, on a foil-lined baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Brush half of mustard mixture over fish. Broil fish 8 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.

4. While fish cooks, combine onion and remaining mustard mixture in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cover and cook 2 minutes. Add half of spinach; cover and cook 1 minute or until spinach wilts. Add remaining spinach and tomato; cover and cook 1 minute or until spinach wilts. Stir well to combine. Serve fish over spinach mixture; serve with lemon wedges.
