Cabo Fish Tacos

It’s TACO TUESDAY! My favorite day of the month…The idea for these tacos came from one I saw on a Fuego Tortilla Grill menu that sounded pretty darn good. Their taco was filled with shrimp, seasoned with soy, ginger, & citrus and served with a Mexican slaw, pico de gallo, & jack cheese in a corn tortilla. I’ve substituted Tilapia for the shrimp and experimented with the marinade and Mexican slaw until it was just right! Hope you give it a go…

Pork Carnitas

Pork Carnitas

I know, I know, Thanksgiving is right around the corner and I should be posting something I’m going to make for Thanksgiving but in my house it’s Taco Tuesday! My favorite day of the month and I just can’t help myself!! This is the time when I get to experiment with different flavors of tacos. On tonight’s menu are Pork Carnitas.

Seasoned ground pork does its job well in these tasty tacos…A very quick and tasty meal today since Thursday we’ll be on our feet all day cooking… Continue reading

Baja Fish Tacos

It’s Taco Tuesday! I’ve read that about fifty years ago, somewhere in Baja California someone created what is generally considered to be the original Baja fish taco.  This tasty taco traditionally consists of a lightly battered mild white fish that is deep-fried, then served in a corn tortilla with shredded cabbage, a sour-cream- or mayonnaise-based sauce, a bit of salsa, and a squeeze of lime. I’ve changed the original just a bit in this recipe – using a cornmeal crust and using only a tablespoon or two of vegetable oil instead of deep-frying the fish. I tossed the shredded cabbage in the mayo-sour cream concoction along with some fresh cilantro and the zest and juice of a lime. The flavor combination is amazing! I hope you give these a try on your next Taco Tuesday… Continue reading
