Blood Orange Fish Tacos
We eat a lot of tacos around here, at least 3-4 times a week. While I love fish tacos, sometimes fried food just doesn’t sit well. Luckily it’s easy to achieve the same great taste but in a healthier fashion.
There’s an abundance of blood oranges lately and citrus makes it easy to add a lot of flavor to baked or grilled fish. If you’re missing that signature crunch of a fried fish taco, a light slaw is an excellent stand in. Top it all off with guacamole because well, guacamole makes everything better.
Mission Foods just introduced a new line of Gluten Free Tortillas made with gluten free flour and Digestive Health Tortillas made with probiotics for sensitive stomachs. They taste just like regular tortillas while being conscious of health and dietary needs. Currently they are only available on the West Coast.
My kids love the Digestive Health Tortillas and can’t even tell the difference. Just two Digestive Health Tortillas per day provide one billion CFU of GanedenBC30® probiotic cultures, making it easy to get all the digestive support while enjoying your favorite meal.
Try out these healthier fish tacos and make them a part of your weekly dinner routine!
