Lots of great ideas here! Guess I'm in for some trial and error, huh? Definitely planning on trying the lemon-caper sauce (love those!). Jean, I think I have seen that market, is it by the Trader Joe's? I was planning on making a stop there. I'll have to post when I try something, probably sometime early next week as I leave for Atlanta for a few days on Thursday! Thanks everyone and keep 'em comin! Kate Hmm...does this mean I get to buy one of those fancy fish spatulas?

olives, mushrooms, lobster, shrimp Saltiness of first one and texture on the last three. Of course there are lots of things I haven't tried, so that list may grow!

Lots of salads (tuna and lettuce) plus my new favorite "snack" that ends up being a meal. Tomato slices spread with goat cheese and topped with basil. Maybe not gourmet, but tasty!

Hi everyone, I need some help. I want to try and start eating more fish, and since I don't dine out regularly (almost never actually) I need to get the basics for preparing at home. I don't even know what types of fish I like other than canned tuna, crab cakes and fish fry! I know that the texture of lobster and shrimp are not my favorites. I used to eat fish whenever we went out when I was a kid, but became almost phobic(slight exaggeration there) as I grew older. So, how do I find good fish? I've always been suspect of the supermarket stuff. How do I know what to get? Is some more "fishy" than others? How do I prepare it? Do I have to live with a stinky apartment after I cook it? I told you I needed help! Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks! BTW, I'm in the Chicago suburbs (Naperville) if that helps any!
