Summer is officially here! Beaches, Fourth of July, Barbecues, Swimming, Tacos…
Yes, tacos!
Something about tacos puts me in a relaxed mood. (Or maybe it’s the margarita that I sip on while I make a batch…)
Tacos are a spicy, flavorful meal; plus they’re super easy to make with a few ingredients from your CSA.
I prefer (spicy) shrimp tacos because of the high protein, low fat, and digestibility. It’s also chalked full of GOOD fats, like monounsaturated or omegas also found in avocados, olive oil and walnuts. It’s also great for those who aren’t ready to be totally meat-free yet.
Consider overfishing by searching sustainable options from Monterey Bay when shopping. Ask your providers about their sources before buying – Whole Foods has verified that they trace every fish in the sea they provide. On a budget? Lucky for us, Philly has markets with fresh, affordable fish. Two is my favorites are Cameron’s Seafood Market & Ippolito’s Seafood Co.
Garnish with a lime wedge and you’re ready to serve buffet style.
Readers, do you have any fun fish recipes for the summer? Any recommendations of where to get the best sustainable seafood? Let us know in the comments.
