FISH TACO WITH AVOCADO SALSA

Looking for something healthy and crunchy? Dig it up.

Long ago, it was believed that Tacos have been arrived from Mexico, long
before the Spanish appeared. Ancient Mexicans combined freshly made, soft,
flat corn tortillas and gave them fillings like fish and vegetables. It’s a staple
meal that provides vital nutrients as well as energy.
