What is tilapia?

What are cannoli
Tilapia is the perfect Lenten fish. Besides being a delicious eating fish, tilapia is also called "St. Peter's Fish", a title arising out of the biblical account of St. Peter catching a fish that carried a shekel coin in its mouth. The type of fish St. Peter caught is not mentioned in the bible, but one variety of tilapia (sarotherodon galilaeus galilaeus) is known to be found in the Sea of Galilee where the account took place. Cannoli (Sicilian for "little tubes") are unique and delicious Italian pastries believed to have originated in Sicily around the first century A.D. They are tube-like desserts that consist of crispy fried pastry shells filled with cannoli cream (made from sweetened ricotta cheese and secret "family" ingredients -- we could tell you, but then we'd have to kill you). Cannoli is actually the plural. If you want just one, it is a cannolo.
