Fish Tacos! Buen Provecho!

I love to cook, especially on weekends.  Last night I made my version of fish tacos for two. 

I started off with making pico de gallo.  I actually wanted to make guacamole but the avocados weren't ready. 

Pico de Gallo:
  • 1/2 tomato
  • 1/4 of an avocado, diced
  • 1/8 cup of red onions
  • fresh lime juice
  • sprinkle of salt
  • 1/4 cup of Goya Medium Salsa Verde

Personally, I LOVED this mix!!!  Tangy and spicy.


Next, I sauteed 3 fillets of tilapia in a large flat skillet.
  • Sprayed skillet with Pam
  • Squeezed fresh lime juice
  • Lemon Pepper seasoning
  • Salt
Tilapia doesn't need much spices.  Too much will overwhelm the fish flavor.



While the fish was cooking I chopped up the fixins.
  • tomato
  • romaine lettuce
  • cut limes in half
  • sauteed onions (cooked with the fish)
  • And pulled out Laughing Cow Wedge..love this stuff and I add it to pretty much ANYTHING.  Its  mix taste of sour cream and cheese...minus the calories and fat.




I like to chop up the fish on the skillet.




I brought it all together with the following,  weight watchers points listed for 1 serving.   

  • 3 Mission Carb Balance small flour tortillas: 4 WW Points
  • 6 oz of tilapia: 4 WW points
  • 1 Laughing Cow Wedge: 1 WW point
  • 1/2 cup of Goya Casero Refried Black Beans: 4 WW points
  • 1/2 of the pico de gallo: 1 WW points, this is for the 1/8 of a medium avocado
      • WW points total: 14   You can easily modify the meal by removing the beans or a taco to reduce WW points.
Buen Provecho!
