What’s the first thing you think of when you think about fall? Pumpkin spice lattes? apples? acorn squash? Wait, wait, wait. You mean to tell me that it’s not fish tacos?
Happy first day of fall!
You guys, I’m the worst. Yep, I’m the person talking about fish tacos on literally the first day of fall. But before you click away, hear me out. I know for a fact that all that pumpkin spice bonanza is going to start to infiltrate your Pinterest/Facebook/Instragram feed immediately, so I’m just trying to give you a break. a nice little safe space to take a breather from all the orange and black.
Growing up, fish tacos weren’t really a part of my Mexican family’s diet. Sure, we ate fish, but my parents usually just pan-fried it and served it with a side of rice and sautéed veggies. It wasn’t until I went to college and started looking at recipes online that I realized how beloved fish tacos were by many.
When I had my first fish taco, I was hooked. Fresh squeezed lime juice, some cilantro and a creamy spicy sauce to top it all off. What’s not to love?!
