Last night for our Lenten Friday meal we had tilapia fish tacos.
At the risk of sounding totally stupid, I am going to have to say they were {thebomb.com}.
Jay grilled them on a cedar plank {along with garlic, coriander, cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt & pepper} which gives the fish an awesome smokey flavor.
We added shredded lettuce, grilled red & yellow peppers, a little cheese, some pineapple salsa, a shot of Sriracha and a squeeze of lemon.
Here is one all loaded up…
Finally found some corn tortillas that don’t fall apart ~ La Banderita {from Ralphs}. This meal was not only delish, but it was very affordable…the fish was $3.65 and the tortillas were $1.99 for 30. Elliott even loved the fish so that was one less short order I had to fill! Next Friday we’ll be making grilled shrimp tacos with chipotle lime crema.
Stay tuned for more Lenten recipes.
Happy Saturday!
Hey Amy,
Just wanted to tell you about La Tortilla Factory corn tortillas.
They actually taste good and they hold up very well.
I get them at Vons!

“La Tortilla Factory’s
Hand Made Style Corn Tortillas
The first tortilla with the taste of corn, but the flexibility of flour tortillas! This is quickly becoming a must-have for families and friends that want to enjoy soft tacos filled with their favorite grilled meats, poultry, seafood, and/or vegetables! Perfect for quesadillas, or a healthy, quick snack with hummus and veggies. Available in White Corn, Yellow Corn, and Chipotle varieties at supermarkets across the country.”
Ooooh, thanks for letting me know. I will check our Vons and see if they carry them. I am a flour tortilla girl all the way, but corn are lower in fat and less calories so we’re trying to eat those more. The ones I showed have 12o calories for 2 and zero fat which I thought was pretty good….looking forward to the shrimp tacos next week! Will certainly share the recipe…thanks for reading and hope to see you soon! XOXO
