Ollie's Notes

Tips for feeding the kids: Let them help: Have the kids help with tasks like mixing the tomatoes and olives or arranging the lemon slices on top of the fish. Involvement in meal preparation can increase their interest in eating the dish.

Make it fun: Present the dish in a playful manner, perhaps calling it “Treasure Fish,” with the olives and tomatoes serving as “treasures” to discover.
