HEALTHY RECIPE: Soy glazed fish, w caramelized onions/garlic, greens, and mashed potatoes

April 23, 2012 in Health & Food, News

The first thing you are asking yourself mashed potatoes are healthy? YES! They can be. Again as I have mentioned before it is all about how you prepare your meals.  This dish is very tasty and unconventional. I was craving mashed potatoes all week so I made them with this soy sauce glazed tilapia fish. Per my friends request,  I added gravy to their mashed potatoes. This is a low calorie meal about 500 calories. If you got this from a restaurant it would be about 1,800 calories.

Heres what you need:

- Small or medium sized tilapia (or any white fish of your choice)

- Soy sauce (low salt is best)

- Spinach

- Fresh peeled garlic

- Red onion

- Butter

- Seasoning salt

- Garlic powder

- Potatoes (any kind is fine depending on your taste LEAVE THE SKIN ON)

- Sea salt

- Chicken gravy (low sodium)

How to prepare this meal:

You will need preheat your oven to 350 while you are prepping your meal.  Get a few potatoes, cut them in 4 pieces and put them to boil. Sometimes potatoes take a while to boil so give them some time and start boiling on a low heat first. when they are done, keep the skin on, and simply mash them and lightly add salt. If you want to add butter use it sparingly. Remember you are making this healthy and everything else already has salt & butter ****DON’T ADD UNNECESSARY CALORIES**** Season the fish lightly with garlic powder and seasoning salt. Get a baking cookie sheet style pan, or any baking pan you have that will allow you to put as many pieces of fish as you like, depending on the size of your family. Spray the pan down with PAM spray and put your fish on the pan. Pour 2 teaspoons of low sodium soy sauce over the fish and put in the over. You can individually wrap each fish with the soy sauce to give it a more tender flavor if you like.  Take the fish out when ready, leave in longer for a more glazed crispy flavor. Slice your garlic and red onions. In a wok style pan, spray it down with PAM, put the heat on low, and put the garlic and red onions in the pan. Add a tablespoon of soy sauce, a teaspoon of unsalted or salter butter (Smart Balance Light Original Buttery Spread) and cook until the garlic and onions are golden or crispy, depending on your taste. In a boiling pot, boil your spinach, don’t add any salt or flavor to it wait until after it is on your plate. Spinach usually cooks fast so do this last.  In a small boiling pot, put your gravy and boil it until ready. This also should be done in the end. Put the red onions and garlic over the fish and  gravy over the mashed potatoes, add soy sauce over your spinach and dinner is served.

Remember to NOT serve yourself large portions or add unnecessary calories. Skip the gravy! Add less salt, no butter on the spinach etc etc  Stick to smaller versions of the ingredient serving sizes.  Eat your dinner a little earlier in the evening and enjoy :)

Where is Somaya Reece? This is what I have been up to. Signing deals

January 9, 2012 in News

Firstly i’m grateful to be on 2 seasons of a hit show on Vh1 – Love And Hip Hop. My purpose of being on this show was to build a  platform and take the success to a new height! As any FOCUSED individual  should do if given a chance to be on a hit show with 5 million weekly viewers. Vh1  introduced me to a new audience outside of the audience I had already built throughout the years. I am very thankful for this Gracias A Dios :)

Fast forward……..I got exactly what I have been looking for,  you only  saw  a fraction of it on  the show. Although I would have LOVED for you to see my journey, I have my website , Twitter and Facebook to keep you updated. I got my deal (indy) investment,  I went to L.A, Boston & Denver signed several awesome deals for TV, a publisict, brand management, working on my book, and acting. Met with a few casting directors that I will be working with directly. I left town on a mission and I was blessed!

1  particular  thing  i’m excited about, I have a MAJOR talent agency representing me now. And  **drum roll please**  an awesome brand manager with a lot of experience.  I now have a very experienced team that represent big celebrities! So they know what to do with me in order for me to go reach the top. They work with many of your favorite stars and are hands on with everything involving their brand. My musical team is impeccable, Midi Mafia, KMG, and  Richy Pena. My new musical sound is SOLID and is moving good numbers so far. I must say, 2012 is starting off with a big bang !!!!

I AM SOOOOOOO EXCITED ABOUT THIS ? ? ? My team as a whole is 100% committed to me & my project, they care, and they are TUFF. I’m grateful that I found everything I needed to move my name & music. Don’t get it twisted tho, now comes the hard work and I am ready for it :)

I also re connected with my  close friends whom of course I stay in touch with, but I haven’t seen since I left L.A. My mom was so happy to see me, I didn’t tell her I was coming I just popped up in my house and she flipped out of happiness. She was like “are you back here for good” awwwwww I love her. So yeah, my move to NY, I literally called my only  East Coast friend at the time Cito (from season 1) and said I was sick of not finding this Latin musical sound I was looking for so I was going to drop everything and leave to NY. He thought I was crazy, so did my mother, my father freaked out, my sisters cried, but I knew I just had to do this  if I was going to pursue my dream 100% Can you believe it has been two years since I came to NY with nothing but a dream, a suitcase, no home to live in, leaving my entire family and home behind???? I can’t either! lol But I firmly believe without risk, you will only look back at your life and wonder…..WHAT IF?

Thank you everyone for your support through this journey. The girl that came to NY with 1 suitcase and no place to live :) It took forever, years of extreme sacrifice but. Here I am…..

My 2o12 highlight moment: Missy Elliott is my musical inspiration, she broke down all the barriers that Hollywood built, she is an inspiration to the youth and her story is touching, she has overcome so much I just love and relate to her so much.  I was on Twitter late last night writing to fans and I tweeted her. I seriously had NO IDEA she would even read to or have any clue who little ole me was. To my SHOCK she tweeted me back, I literally shed a tear and screamed.  I am so humbled and still smiling so big right now. It’s official! My 2012 is now off to a GREAT start and you can’t tell me nothin!!!!!! **Nas Voice** lol  I’m going into overdrive in my work. She is a LEGEND and did not have to even acknowledge my existence but she did. I feel so motivated to grind harder than before. It is inspiring that such a  MASSIVE musical  legend is so humble,  sweet, and congratulated another artist for  their hard work. What a classy woman. Pinch me please??

This is the most awesomest year EVER! And it just started…..
