Gorton's Grilled Tilapia Review

As we all know fish is pretty much as low carb as you can get. It's a great healthy option for a meal to help fill you up and will keep the carbs at a very low level for the meal. 

Sometimes however we find ourselves short on time and don't have the ability to prepare our meals like we would like to. And sometimes we are just lazy. To coincide with this way of life I decided to try some of Gorton's Frozen Fish Filets. Buying some fresh fish, seasoning it, and baking it probably wouldn't take much work, but for those of us that prefer the packaged meal route these exist. Specifically I tried the Gorton's Grilled Tilapia. The instructions are pretty simple. Heat up your oven, throw them on some foil in a pan, and let them cook. 

So how are they? Not so bad. The flavor is pretty mild so if you arent a huge seafood fan you may be ok with these. Tilapia is usally a pretty tame fish anyway. The seasoning was ok, not too strong or salty. It had a smokey taste to it. I personally might say that the filets are under seasoned for my taste. 

In terms of prep, they are super easy to make and have no carbs in them at all. My only disappointment is the size. They seem just a tad bit small. I guess you get what you pay for though and for your money you could probably get some fish that wasn't in a packaged box that you could season yourself that was maybe a little bigger. Still not too bad.

Thanks for this review! I'm trying to eat more fish but it's so difficult to prepare. I'll give these a go though since they look small, I think I could eat the whole box at one sitting!
