Most of the tilapia consumed here in US is imported and purchased as frozen fillets. Some of it is actually farmed here in the US. I mean it is not terrible, and it is probably healthier than adding ground beef or steak to that dish. It is just kind of meh and I do not trust the fish farms in Asia. I have actually been onsite to a few of them in China and Vietnam and lets just say I do not eat any fish or shellfish products from either country. But if you find fillets from the US of even South America, they are a decent inexpensive, low calorie, low fat protein source that you can keep on hand in the freezer. I will have to see if they have any at Whole Foods out of curiosity the next time I am there.
I start the day with coffee and biscotti and I end the day with pasta. My daily joyful-bookends. I tried to eat something besides pasta for dinner, but why? Where is the joy?

I think you posted about touring a prawn farm in Vietnam a few years back. Made me only buy wild ones after that. But those are sometimes hard to come by so my prawn consumption has definitely dropped since your post. lol

Yep. That is me. Prawns, Catfish, Tilapia and Crawfish farms in Asia. And Salmon farms in Argentina, Chile and Scotland. I've seen some things.
Yes. Follow a proven recipe. I kinda did. The corn i added might throw off the recipie. There are certain ingredients you can play with. Canning is a blast!

They came out decent.
Served them with a lobster miso soup.
Looks awesome.

Sweet corn in a salsa sounds good too.
