Shrimp Tacos with Apple Slaw

Up until recently I never ate shrimp. It was chewy and smelled fishy and cold and slimy - I hated everything about it. The first time I tried it was at a Benihana and I spit it out and had a melt down (I won't even say how old I was because it's embarrassing). 

But then I found out you can have good shrimp, not just pre-frozen shrimp cocktail. 

This year I've had shrimp four times, three times I cooked it myself. That might not seem like a lot, but when your motto was "I don't eat things from the sea" for 27 years, it's a pretty big deal.

Baked Sole with Avocado Mango Salsa

Need dinner in 20 minutes? Don't worry, I have you covered!

This baked sole with avocado mango salsa tastes fresh and summery. It's the perfect piece of paradise in the middle of this insane winter. 



Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking tray with tin foil. 

Place fish on tin foil and season with old bay, pepper and garlic powder to taste. Bake in oven for 15-20 minutes, until fish is white and flakey.

While fish is cooking, dice an avocado and a mango. Mix in a bowl with olive oil, pepper, fresh parsley. Let rest until fish is cooked. 

I made sweet and spicy green beans on the side and had leftover rice, and it was perfect. The green beans take 10 minutes - just saute them on the stove top in coconut oil, salt, red pepper flakes to taste and black pepper. 

I used sole, but feel free to use whatever fish you would like. Either way, it's so easy and so delicious and too quick not to make! Enjoy!
