I was beginning to think that the weather was deliberately keeping us from enjoying ourselves, until Sunday night, when we finally got to go to a CWS game and enjoy watching UNC lose.
So officially, two events were rained out – a ball game and an outdoor play, but we did get to play a little guitar, eat fish tacos and go swimming. Not too shabby.
In other news, we finally confirmed the sighting of this monster.
Fish Taco Recipe
On the stove, throw together some white fish (I used tilapia), shrimp (these are for Jud because he loves them, and I actually just realised this weekend that I don’t really care for them), fresh cilantro, a small amount of oil (I used olive oil, but you can use something more exotic like coconut oil too), chopped onion, chopped red bell pepper and thinly sliced zucchini. Dash a little bit of salt in there and then squeeze fresh lime juice over top and simmer for about 15 minutes.
Portion onto flour tortillas and add your taco condiments. You can use whatever kind of cheese is your favorite, but I prefer sharp cheddar. I add sour cream too. Jud takes the taco all the way down to the salsa, but I prefer to let the fish and lime pop out without tomato tastes to diminish it at all. Gideon prefers no sour cream, but plenty of fish and zucchini in every bite.
I must admit, I always thought “fish tacos” sounded so unappetizing. Perhaps it is because I have never had one, or even tried to figure out what was in them. (The first time I ever heard of them was at the college cafeteria. Fish + Taco+ Cafeteria = Bad combination) Reading through your recipe though, makes them sound quite delicious (minus the shrimp), and I may have to give this one a try! 🙂
Looks yummy even by itself! No need for a taco!
I’m totally going to make those fish tacos and I can’t wait to taste them!
