Introduction

The thought of eating a "fish" taco just did not sound right to me. When I think of a taco I think of ground beef, lettuce, tomato, cheese, etc. Well, while trying to figure out something new for dinner one night, I called my sister who suggested this recipe. I love fish and I love tacos, so I thought I should give it a shot, and really liked it!!!

So give it a try and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!! The thought of eating a "fish" taco just did not sound right to me.
