One of my families favorite taco recipe is the Fish Taco. We make something with a spicy kick a few days a week minimum. Now that it is just Dave and I living together I am learning to make smaller batches of food for dinner. Fish Tacos are easy to use for leftovers the next day. The house smells so good with that touch of cumin aroma circulating the house.
We have been in the new apartment now a few weeks and I am settling in well. I have a post coming up updating the decor
I cannot even explain how happy Dave and I are living in the city with so many bike and walking paths. We are going to buy cross-country skis for the Winter to keep us active, do you cross-country ski?
So for the Tacos coat them well and place on a lined baking pan.
I bake these for about 20 minutes your oven could vary.
Aah so good and crunchy are the Fish Tacos right out of the oven.
