Fish Tacos Recipe – 7 Points +
The perfect quick and easy weeknight dinner recipe idea, these Fish Tacos are a breeze to make and taste amazing. They are so fresh and light, and are just 7 Points + for two tacos. Pair it with a 0 Points + Weight Watchers Soup Recipe or some roasted vegetables for a complete and healthy meal. I used Alaskan cod in my fish tacos recipe, but really, a wide variety of fish can be used, and as long as you aren’t using a very fatty fish (like salmon), it shouldn’t affect the Points + value much, if at all. These were so easy to make, and were a hit with my husband, so I’ll definitely be making these fish tacos again soon!
