It’s Taco Tuesday!! These tacos are anything but boring. They are extremely colorful and full of nutrients. And, you won’t even know it because they taste so good! These are a great way to get in Omega 3s (heart healthy fats), and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends consuming 8 oz of fish per week. This recipe makes 4 tacos, 2 for now, 2 for lunch tomorrow!
