Halibut Fish Tacos with Cabbage Slaw and a Chipotle Yogurt Sauce!
I am always looking for ways to incorporate fish into my diet, and I think that one of the most fun and best ways is to make tacos! These fish tacos are a great portion size for dinner, especially when you are really hungry! They have good protein and keep the calories low, but they are so delicious and keep the flavor high! It might seem like a lot of ingredients, but they do come together really quickly, and I promise you will love these! I used halibut, but you can use any firm fish you like.
