Travel is exciting and adventurous, but let’s be honest — it can also be exhausting. Even worse is when you catch a cold after a long flight and have to battle a snotty nose in addition to that backlog of emails.

In fact, there are other fish that have similar characteristics as tilapia — mild, flaky, and easy to please the whole family. Whether you’re just getting sick and tired of tilapia or simply want to expand you horizons, here are five other fish to try.

And the same has been said about people who do Paleo (except they’ll tell you right after they describe their Crossfit WOD in excruciating detail).

You can pretty much count on there being a green salad on my dinner table every single night — I find it’s the easiest way to add something wholesome to the meal without fuss. Even when I invite friends over for dinner, that green salad stays put. What changes, however, is its construction.
