fast dinner - fish tacos






who here likes fish tacos? i know we do! it's been quite a long time since we had them last (i know this since they haven't made an appearance on the blog yet), but they are definitely a favorite around here! the first time i ever tried them was at the restaurant i used to work at - i instantly fell in love. 


did i mention that they are ridiculously easy to make! you just need some fish (we like tilapia) and lots of spices to make it super tasty, crunchy taco shells, and whatever toppings you like. traditionally one eats fish tacos topped with cabbage, which is delicious, but in a pinch lettuce is fine too! that's what we had today along with: onion, tomatoes, and my homemade chipotle mayo. superb!

mix all of the above together, let sit in the fridge for awhile for the flavors to meld together, then enjoy!!
