Fish pasta

Okay, so V (no, not THAT V -- my husband) and I made an improvised fish pasta this evening, and it was pretty dang good, if I say so myself. Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:

4 fish filets (swai, in this case)
about a quarter of a pack of imitation lobster
half a box of linguine
an 8-oz. pack of cream cheese
1 Roma tomato, diced
3 zucchini, sliced into long strips
about a cup of frozen spinach
half a cup of shredded mozzerella
1/2 or 1 cup of colby jack cheese
garlic powder
paprika
salt
pepper
thyme
basil
oregano
Greek seasoning
crushed red pepper
*** Seasonings are all to taste.

Directions:
1. Boil fish until it starts to come apart. Fish out with a slotted spoon.
2. Boil linguine and spinach in water the fish was in. Add sliced zucchini after about 8ish minutes of boiling. Drain in colander once noodles are done.
3. Mix cooked fish, cream cheese, linguine, tomato, zucchini, spinach, spices, and mozzerella (basically everything but the colby jack cheese), and then put in baking dish.
4. Top with colby jack cheese.
5. Bake in a preheated oven (350 deg.) for about 15 minutes. Makes a BIG dish -- 8 servings for us. Though, V liked it enough to have 2 servings in one night. Personally, I had dessert instead. :-)

  1. PS I also put a little lemon juice in -- maybe a tablespoon? Maybe a little more than that?
