Like, the idea that every Tuesday, tacos should be involved? Brilliant. Just brilliant.

Fun fact, I was a vegetarian for 7 years, beginning in high school and then through part of college. As such, I missed out on learning from my mom how to cook meat and fish.

To this day, cooking meat is tough for me because I just don’t feel good at it.

So, when it comes to meat-based recipes, I always opt for ease: slow-cookers, instant pots, grills, etc. Anything that makes cooking meat hard to mess up.

When creating this fish taco recipe, I knew I wanted to cook the fish in a way that was near impossible to mess up, and yet packed all the flavor. And I have to say, I think I succeeded!

All you have to do to make this fish for the tacos is rub it with olive oil and blackened seasoning, then cook it for 10 minutes in a 450°F oven. Et voila! Perfectly cooked, flakey fish ready for their taco destinies.

You saw it here first, people. Broma Bakery, making cooking fish a cinch since 2018.

Of course, it always helps to have a delicious drizzle of sour cream, aioli, etc. on one’s tacos. To keep things healthy, I created a dairy-free Avocado Cilantro Lime Crema using Almond Breeze Unsweetened Original almondmilk.

It’s freaking delicious. So much so that I may or may not have dipped my tacos directly into the crema…

So HAPPY TACO TUESDAY, Y’ALL. GO MAKE YASELF SOME FISH TACOS!

  1. Quick and delicious! This makes lots of extra crema which is great as dip or poured over eggs.
