Pilates Summer Series – Day #8 + Fresh Mango Salsa
Did you catch yesterday’s incredible “Summer Foodie” giveaway? It’s full of so many goodies I can hardly stand it.
Speaking of food, one of my favorite summertime meals is fresh fish tacos. I love having friends over for chips, guac, homemade salsa and fresh citrus margaritas. Is there anything better on a hot summer night?
Here’s my recipe for mango salsa (the crunchy jicama is the secret ingredient)…
Fresh Mango Salsa
Ingredients:
2 mangos, diced (how to cut a mango)
2 tomatoes, diced
1 jalepeno, seeds removed and finely chopped
1/2 jicama, chopped
1 avocado, diced
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
juice from 2-3 limes
1/2 bunch of cilantro, chopped
3/4 tsp cumin
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Directions:
Chop all ingredients and combine. Serve with chips or over fish tacos.
My fish taco recipe is pretty basic…
Healthy Fish Tacos
(serves 2-3)
Ingredients:
1 lb white fish (wild caught cod, halibut or tilapia)
1/4 cup olive oil
Juice from 1 lime
1 tablespoon chili powder
Organic corn tortillas
Directions:
Marinate fish in olive oil, lime and chili powder for about 30 minutes. Cook fish on the grill or on the stove until cooked through and flakey. Top with mango salsa and Cilantro Crema (vegenaise or plain greek yogurt, cilantro, chili powder and fresh lime juice)
Sounds good doesn’t it?
This healthy meal will be a hit with the family and guests alike. If you give it a try let me know what you think!
