Last night, after almost an hour in the grocery store, Bry & I ended up throwing together a bunch of ingredients and out come this amazing dish!  It’s very simple, but even more delicious.  I find that although I have more time to plan and cook meals on the weekends, I still like the simplicity of throwing together a few ingredients and making a fresh, crisp meal.  My favorite part about this meal is the lemon zest and juice.  The tang of the lemon pairs well with the sea salt and olive oil.

What’s your favorite meal using lemon?
