Yes, you can make healthy meals at home quickly and easily!  Even busy cooks can find time to make these Quick and Easy Buttery Citrus Fish and Easy Grilled Vegetables.  This meal is a lot better for you and your family than a trip through the fast-food drive-thru.
QUICK AND EASY BUTTERY CITRUS FISH
3 tbsp butter flavored sprinkles
1 tbsp lemon pepper blend
1 tbsp lime juice
2 tsp honey
1 lb boneless white fish fillets
In a small bowl combine the butter flavored sprinkles, lemon pepper blend, lime juice, and honey; stir to mix well.  Place the fish fillets on broiler pan and broil 6 to 8-inches from the heat until first side starts to brown.  Turn fish over and spread the honey mixture over the second side.  Broil another 4 to 5 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

EASY GRILLED VEGETABLES
 
1/2 cup mayo style salad dressing
1/2 cup Italian salad dressing
2 zucchini, cut in half lengthwise
2 yellow squash, cut in half lengthwise
2 bell peppers, cored, seeded, and cut into fourths
If using an electric broiler, preheat. If using an outside grill, cook over hot not flaming coals. No need to preheat a gas broiler.
Mix the mayo style salad dressing and the Italian dressing until they are well blended. Lightly score the cut sides of the vegetables and brush one side with the salad dressing mixture. Place, salad dressing side up, on broiler pan about 4-inches from the heat. Broil 6 minutes. Turn vegetables, brush second side with the dressing mixture and return to broiler for another 5 to 6 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
Enjoy!
