Mornings are Busy ~ Life is Busy ~ Breakfast is Important Skipping Breakfast is a really bad choice! If you have an extra 5 minutes in the morning, you can whip up a healthy breakfast smoothie every morning (which is as simple as your favorite …
You may remember that I recently entered Saucy Mama’s Mustard Competition. I have some good news… they liked my Mini Bacon Mustard Quiche Appetizers and I made it onto Round 2… the Entree Round *yay* 🙂 The Secret Ingredient we were given for the entree …
We are a month away from our wedding!
Over a year ago, my fabulous fiance proposed. His proposal took place after lots of hints from everyone, and most importantly after I made “Engagement Cake“. I could not have asked for a more perfect proposal and love that we have it captured forever! Our cake is all picked out (a variation of a cake that I made) – which will be created by one of my co-workers and taste amazing. The venue is a place of great importance to us, where I grew up working, and where we will stay involved (with our family one day) for years to come. The dress is beautiful, the wedding party is stunning, the food will be amazing (one would hope with me being a food-blogger), our Wedding Photographers are out of this world, and the flowers will be fun & easy to create….

A few years ago if you would have offered me Fish Tacos, I probably would have said “NO”!
As I have probably mentioned before though, I am marrying a fish-lover. Fish has tons of health benefits and we are trying to include [sustainable] seafood in our diets on a more regular basis. The more that I experiment with fish, the more I enjoy it, although I am sure my parents wish I would have been more willing to try seafood when I was growing up, they are glad to see me enjoying it now.
These Fish Tacos are filled with delicious flavors. The fish is fresh and fabulous and it is topped with some amazing accompaniments. Just look at these photos – how can you NOT want to dive right in!?
The same way that you would play with flavors and toppings in your beef or chicken tacos – feel free to Continue reading Grilled Fish Tacos
