I have liked all of the recipes I have tried from the Hungry Girl cookbooks or the emails I get from her. Yummy, generally pretty darn easy plus healthier than most yummy recipes :)<\/p>\n<p><strong>TACOS:<\/strong><br \/>\n2 tbsp. lime juice<br \/>\n1 tsp garlic powder<br \/>\n1 tsp ground cumin<br \/>\n1\/2 tsp chili powder<br \/>\n1\/8 tsp salt<br \/>\nTwo 4-oz raw tilapia fillets (or other flaky white fish)<br \/>\n4 6-inch corn tortillas<br \/>\n1 cup shredded lettuce<br \/>\n1\/4 cup chopped tomato<\/p>\n<p>Now, I doubled the fish (4 fillets) and doubled the spices and tripled the lime juice. With this you can get more tacos and if you are feeding a boy in the house, you need more. We used 6 tortillas. <\/p>\n<p><strong>For Avocado Cream:<\/strong\n2 tbsp mashed avocado\n2 tbsp fat-free sour cream\n1\/2 tsp lime juice\ndash garlic powder, or more to taste\ndash chili powder, more to taste\nDash salt, more to taste\n\nNow, I used 2 avocados, and mixed in the sour cream slowly to get it a creamy green color\/texture (I make it more avocado-ey than sour cream-ey for my personal taste) so I don't know the exact measurement - just eyeball it. I also used a good amount of lime juice as that's what I do when I make guacamole. YUM!\n\n<strong>Directions:<\/strong><br \/>\nCombine lime juice and spices for the tacos in a large bowl, and mix well. Add fillets and evenly cover both sides with seasoned lime juice. Cover and let marinate in the fridge (I let marinate for a couple hours but Hungry Girl says 5 minutes is ok.)<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, combine all ingredients for avocado cream in a small bowl and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.<\/p>\n<p>Spray a grill or grill pan with non-stick spray and bring to medium heat. Grill fish for 5 minutes and then very carefully (can break apart as fragile) flip. Grill for 3 more minutes, or until cooked through. Break the fish apart in to small pieces.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, heat tortillas on a grill pan or comal until warm\/lightly browned. I can fit 2 small corn tortillas on the pan so it takes a few minutes to do them all. Keep them warm, under a heating lamp or in a tortilla holder. <\/p>\n<p>Then spread the avocado cream on the tortillas and fill with fish, lettuce and tomatoes. I also sliced up some limes as garnish\/to squeeze on tacos.<\/p>\n<p>This was an easy, fast and delicious meal. Especially for a nice, warm summer (ok, technically fall but whatever) dinner.<\/p>\n<p>I do not take any credit for this recipe other than printing it off and then elaborating on the spices and avocado cream. I love fish tacos!! Since I&#8217;ve lived in Florida and California since I was 12 years old, I have been eating seafood tacos forever (fish, shrimp and even lobster.) I learned that some East Coasters and Mid-Westerns (and a lot of foreigners) had never even heard of fish tacos &#8211; WHAT?!?! You need to try them! So I hope you try this recipe and like it!  :)<\/p>\n<p>Also, I think the avocado cream recipe should be used for chips and dips purposes &#8211; very yummy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I want to share this recipe because it was YUMMY!
