If you want to open a bottle of wine, my choice would be Sauvignon Blanc, but I just had a nice cold beer with a slice of lime with these and it was great!

Happy summer eating….

    YUM! I love fish tacos! These are different that what I’ve tried. They look amazing and my mouth is watering. Wine or beer would be great with them! When should I be over?

    Yum, yum! Do you prefer a certain kind of white fish? I hope the UT fires aren’t near you. Still a tinderbox here in CO.

    I wish I could convince my husband that fish should be in tacos! I love them and he says that fish doesn’t belong there.

    Yummy! I’ve only had fish tacos once, but I loved them. Thanks for the recipe – I find that I am cooking almost exclusively from blogs these days, and I’ll be printing out this recipe to try.

    For some reason, I just can’t get behind fish tacos. I’ve ordered them several times, and I love fish, but I guess not in my Mexican food.

    They always look and smell good, though!

    Please. Send. Tacos. Immediately.

    I am famished.

    okay.

    Technically, I’m not really famished.

    I’m just really, really hungry.

    And these look fantastic!

    You are such a good food photographer!

    Be safe, my friend.

    Hugs and A+
