Easy Fish Tacos

Taco Tuesday! 🌮 Quick and easy fish tacos for dinner! There are several ways to enjoy tacos on plan. You can make cheese shells which is simply melted cheese hardened into shells, smaller homemade cauliflower crusts, or various kinds of lettuce. I used romaine lettuce. The Vegetable Conversion Chart is helpful in determining how much Green is a serving size.

Romaine lettuce make perfect taco shells, but use any type of lettuce you like. I stuffed the lettuce with seasoned tilapia, air fried red cabbage, avocado or you can use sour cream, salsa ranch dressing and garnished with cilantro. If you want to add cheese,  use 5.25 oz of cooked fish (3/4 Lean) and add 1/4 cup reduced fat mozzarella cheese (1/4 Lean). So delicious! Enjoy!
