Marinated Swordfish with Artichoke Salad

It was a unanimous decision that it was time to have a seafood night, so off to the store we go to get some fresh fish and other yummy goodies.  Whole Foods Market had an amazing piece of swordfish just calling out to us! We wanted something different to go along with the dish and an artichoke salad was clearly the way to go.  After taste testing several items from their deli section we decided on some roasted red peppers, roasted tomatoes, and some marinated baby artichokes.  YUMMMMMMM.

My 4 yr old daughter cleaned her plate!!  My husband wanted seconds (not allowed though gotta have the leftovers for the next day haha) and I was very proud of a well made healthy meal.  I hope you enjoy this meal as much as my family did.
