Day 16 - Baked Fish Fingers with Greek-Yogurt dip

Everyone has those days where you just aren't really motivated. Well, Gary is having one of those days today, but he cooked up a new recipe anyway and stuck to his 30-Day Cooking plan. The meal he prepared today is pescetarian-friendly, taken from Chatelaine's Dinner in 30.

Gary started off his preparations as he usually does, by posing with his ingredients laid out on the counter:

"I love my job!"
"Gary, you know you're not getting paid, right?"
"..."

He also thought the chopped dill was grass: 

*Chomp chomp*

Turns out Gary isn't a huge fan of dill. 

And he doesn't really like the smell of pickles either. 

But he made the recipe anyway. And voilà, la pièce de résistance:
