Servings: 4
Points: 7

INGREDIENTS
4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia
butter flavored cooking spray
4 teaspoons margarine, melted
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill weed
1 tablespoon lemon-pepper seasoning

4 teaspoons cream cheese
5 tablespoons lemon juice, or to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill weed

DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place the tilapia fillets on the sheet, and coat them lightly with cooking spray. Spoon the melted margarine over each fillet, then drizzle with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Season with lemon pepper and 2 tablespoons of dill.

Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.

While the fish is baking, combine the cream cheese, 5 tablespoons of lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of dill in a small bowl. Heat in the microwave for 1 minute and 10 seconds, then stir to blend.

Place fillets onto serving plates, and spoon sauce around them in a decorative fashion.

*I used less lemon juice than is called for, used brumble and brown yogurt spread instead of margarine, used ocean perch instead of tilapia, and used dried dill instead of fresh (much less is required when it's dried.) I also added some salt, pepper, and herb to the sauce, and there is no reason you need to heat the sauce in the microwave more than 20 seconds.

I served this with steamed and seasoned yellow and green squash and 1/4 pack of Lipton's stroganoff noodles per person (so it serves 4). The fish is 4 points per serving by the recipe, and serves 4. The noodle package says 2 servings but we split it into 4 so it came out to 3 points. It's really a lot of food for 7 points!
