I've worked with talapia before so I don't think it was that but maybe rockfish. gansie - nothing exciting with the spuds, hence no pic thanks for the info, JH – I had a feeling you might have some input.

Also--do anything interesting with the mashers? I love the idea of rings of chile pepper, kind of like looks like scallions, but with a kick.

As for your "red snapper-like fish," there's a pretty good chance it's either rockfish (which is sometimes mislabeled as red snapper) or tilapia (frequently substituted for red snapper in sushi restaurants). Personally, I'm a big fan of tilapia - it's sustainable and inexpensive - but I'm also partial to the 'scarlet snapper' filets they sell at Trader Joe's.
