We eat Fish Tacos year round. Here is a clean and healthy Fish Taco recipe that is quick to fix, gooey and delicious! You could use any fish for these tacos. We used salmon in this recipe but any clean fresh caught, wild fish would be yummy too.

I love coleslaw for fish taco topping! It gives it just the right crunch and tartness needed with fish tacos. Another yummy topping for fish tacos would be a Jicama Salsa. Enjoy!
