Today I join the Creative Sunday initiative. It is a pleasure to share once again with you. This time I bring you a recipe that I came up with for lunch. Yesterday, when visiting the fish market, I noticed that a lot of fresh pink snapper had arrived, so I decided to buy it to enjoy a healthy lunch. This fish has a soft texture and delicious white meat, besides being high in protein. I accompanied it with cabbage and carrot salad and crunchy green plantain tostones to complement the tropical dish, the perfect combination.
