Want a light a delicious summer meal? 
Try grilled sword fish and tomato salad.  Sword fish doesn't taste like other fishes, it tastes more like pork chops.  So for the men in your life who want 'real meat' but you want them to be healthier, sword fish is ideal, especially grilled.  A nice recipe is one courtesy of Giada De Laurentis of the Food Network Channel except I cooked the fish longer then she did.  I also changed the amounts that she had.  I don't like raw fish.

Grilled Swordfish with Lemon, Mint and Basil
1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
1 tblsp. chopped fresh mint leaves
2 tblsp. fresh lemon juice
1 tblsp. fresh chopped basil leaves
1 minced garlic clove
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 swordfish steaks

The tomato salad, I just cut up a large tomato and added canola oil, salt, pepper and balsamic vinegar.
