Fish tacos are a popular dish that is perfect for a light and healthy meal. They are also a great way to get your daily dose of omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for heart health.

This recipe for biggest loser fish tacos is a healthy and delicious twist on the classic dish. The fish is baked instead of fried, which makes it lower in calories and fat. The tacos are also topped with a variety of healthy ingredients, including cabbage, tomatoes, and avocado.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound cod fillet, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 6 corn tortillas

  • 1/2 cup shredded cabbage

  • 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes

  • 1/4 cup sliced avocado

  • 1/4 cup sour cream

  • Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. In a large bowl, combine the cod, olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.

  3. Spread the cod in a single layer on a baking sheet.

  4. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.

  5. While the fish is cooking, warm the tortillas according to package directions.

Tips and Tricks:

  • For a more flavorful fish, marinate the cod in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper for 30 minutes before cooking.

  • If you don't have cod, you can use any type of white fish, such as tilapia, halibut, or flounder.

  • To make the tacos even healthier, use whole wheat tortillas and low-fat sour cream.

  • You can also add other toppings to your tacos, such as shredded cheese, salsa, or guacamole.
