Grilled Wahoo Fish Tacos – Cheat Day Treat

Even on cheat day, you still need to keep your fitness and dietary goals in mind.  Grilled wahoo fish tacos are a great way to make sure you get the protein you need to fuel your fitness goals and get the satisfaction of misbehaving you want!

The secret to great fish tacos is fresh, fresh, fresh!  Fresh fish, most dense white fish will work, mahi is a great choice and abundant, for this treat we chose wahoo.  Wahoo is a little less common in most supermarkets that mahi but it is a great choice if you can get it.  Fresh, guacamole, sour cream and salsa are a must!  Finally, chop up all of you favorite garnish veggies, peppers, cilantro, onion and cabbage.

This meal is definitely not on the Paleo diet, but it is full of nutrients, proteins and healthy fats.

Ingredients:

2 torillas

6 oz Fresh Wahoo or Mahi

2 tbsp Guacamole

2 tbsp sour cream

1/4 cup shredded cabbage

1/8 cup shredded cheddar

1/8 cup fresh salsa

fresh cilantro, chopped jalapenos

  Start by seasoning your wahoo to taste, I love a good blackened fish taco.  Slap your fillets on the grill and take the time to chop up your fresh veggies.

 Set your veggies aside and head over to the grill to check your wahoo fillets.

Take your fillets off, be sure not to overcook! Nothing ruins a great fish taco like a dried out piece of fish.  As you remove your fish fillets, warm your tortillas on the cooling grill.

Chop your fillets up, pull your tortillas off the grill and BUILD YOUR MASTERPIECE!
