Fish Tacos Versus Tofu Tacos

For those who love fish! Is not for me, I live with 2 others so cooking for me is very pleasurable :)

Prefer soft shell tacos for this, can substitute with white bread ( strongly recommend esp soft white bread)

Time: 45mins
Ingredients:
Tilapia or any white fish
Wedged Limes
Thinly shredded cabbage
Diced tomatoes
Corn(optional)
Not cheddar cheese please, Parmesan, Monterey Jack & many other cheese taste so much better
Cilantro Leaves
Scallions(optional)
Diced Avocado or guacamole( personally guacamole taste much better)
Goya Salsa Verde( is a must, very unique green chili taste)
mayo(optional)

Pan fried your fish, with minced garlic, minced cilantro, finely chopped onion and soy sauce... abit salty is ok, coz you have other ingredients in the mix that will blend together well when you take a bite of the taco!!!

Toast your soft taco, lay ur fish fillets, add the rest of ingredients then top it with mayo and salsa verde! you can also use 2 tacos to hold all ur ingredients if you are very hungry!

This is one of my favorite recipe!

The healthier version:

Ingredients:
Soft White Bread that you want to cuddle to sleep with!!! I know most of you would choose whole wheat. 2 whole wheat slices is equal to one slice of white in terms of sugar. Whole wheat has 2 benefits, lower sugar because is not refined grains. Alot of advertisments talk abt eat more whole grains, be healthier! is NOT TRUE!
Pan Fried Diced Firm Tofu(same way I would cook the fish)
Wedged Lime
Sour cream and lime juice
Finely shredded cabbage
Guacamole (Avocado, tomatoes, olive oil, onion, lime juice salt and pepper in salsa mixer & grind them down!)
If you want to toast your bread, use whole wheat!
