TINY Kitchen Halibut Tacos with Grapefruit & Avocado Salsa
FACT: I love very few things as much as I love tacos.
They're oh-so-tasty, there's a million ways to make them and endless delicious ingredients you can pile on top, and they come in their own cute little carrying case. What's not to love?
So, in honor of this Taco Tuesday - I wanted to share a brand new healthy and super yummy taco recipe. We made this last week and absolutely loved the flavor combination: it's light, packed with nutrition, and totally wedding diet compliant. We paired ours with a side of seasoned black beans for a perfect meal. I hope you like it!
