Tilapia is a type of freshwater fish that is widely consumed around the world and is known for its mild taste and versatility in cooking. Tilapia is relatively low in calories, making it a good option for those watching their weight. Tilapia is a good source of protein and contains a variety of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin B12, selenium, phosphorus, and niacin.
